The Conjuring 3 Officially Happening With New Director

After the success of the first The Conjuring movie back in 2013, the world has expanded quite a bit, with the two Annabelle movies, the Conjuring 2 and most recently the terrifying The Nun.

Given the franchise’s success, it’s hardly a surprise that the world surrounding The Conjuring will expand some more, with the third installment of the movie officially happening.

However, there’s a twist. Director James Wan won’t be directing the third The Conjuring movie.
Not to worry though, his replacement was found in Michael Chaves, who worked side to side with James Wan on the movie The Curse Of La Llorona.

James Wan shared the following about Chaves taking the reigns for the highly anticipated new The Conjuring movie:

“While working closely with Chaves on The Curse of La Llorona, I got to know him as a filmmaker.
Chaves’ ability to bring emotion to a story, and his understanding of mood and scares, make him a perfect fit to direct the next Conjuring film. I’m excited to be back as producer and continue with Vera and Patrick on the next supernatural adventure of the Warrens.”

Excited? Well, reel it in, as the movie isn’t to be expected before 2020.
