Glen Schofield Charts a Bold New Path for a Legendary Horror Franchise

The visionary behind a celebrated horror series is showing renewed determination to usher in a fresh chapter. Glen Schofield appears ready to drive a new installment in his distinguished series after several years away from the franchise.

At a recent industry event in Asia, he Revealed that he had been actively taking steps to get in touch with the publisher with his innovative ideas. In his discussions he conveyed points such as:

• The intention to reassemble a proven leadership team.
• The proposal to utilize familiar talent from a recent successful remake.
• The promise of substantial cost savings paired with a compelling vision.

Although his initial conversations with the publisher were met with reluctance, recent changes in the company’s ownership, involving significant new partners, have given him hope. Schofield believes that the altered corporate landscape may finally provide an opportunity for the series to return, and he has already begun reaching out to key contacts once again.

Known for directing both an acclaimed horror saga and another major sci-fi project, Schofield departed his previous studio not long after the latter’s launch. He also mentioned having been involved in a personal venture alongside his daughter—a project he ultimately had to set aside. Despite comments suggesting his career might be drawing to a close, the lure of creating engaging gaming experiences clearly remains strong.
