The Conjuring TV Show Gets Major Update, Nabs MCU Writer

Warner Bros. Discovery announced in 2023 that an HBO Max series of The Conjuring was in development. The upcoming series will “continue the story established in the feature films.” A major update has arrived, announcing that an MCU writer has joined the team.

Ever since The Conjuring was first released in 2013, the supernatural horror film has developed into a major franchise. After that came three more sequels as well as five spin-offs relating to the haunted Annabelle doll and the Demon Nun.

The final Conjuring movie, Last Rites, had the biggest opening weekend for the franchise, grossing $194 million. While Last Rites may be the last theatrical film for the Warrens, it doesn’t mean it’ll be the last project of the Conjuring Universe.

Puck reported that Warner Bros. Pictures’ New Line Cinema division is “already plotting a potential” prequel movie, with no idea whether or not creator James Wan will be involved. There’s a good chance that a prequel film could focus on a young Ed and Lorraine Warren, who have headlined the horror franchise as paranormal investigators for a variety of supernatural cases.

Other than a possible prequel movie, The Conjuring TV series will be coming to HBO Max. As of yet, there have been no casting or plot details.

What’s the latest The Conjuring TV show update?

Variety has reported that MCU writer Nancy Won will be the HBO show’s writer, showrunner, and executive producer. Her TV writing credits have included works like Marvel’s Jessica Jones, Supernatural, and more.

Other Marvel writers are coming onto the horror project, like Peter Cameron and Cameron Squires. Those two are responsible for writing hit MCU shows like Agatha All Along, Moon Knight, and WandaVision.
