Return to Silent Hill, the subsequent live-action Hollywood adaptation of the hit survival horror sequence, is ready to reach in theaters subsequent 12 months. There hasn’t been a lot information concerning the movie in a while, with some questioning if it was going to be dumped on streaming providers. However nope, it’s nonetheless coming to theaters.
Let’s rewind a bit, as a result of I really feel like lots of people may not even remember that a 3rd (!) Silent Hill film is going on. In reality, it already occurred. Return to Silent Hill has been performed for a bit now, after it wrapped up taking pictures in 2023. It’s directed and co-written by Christophe Gans, the identical man who directed the weirdly good unique Silent Hill movie from 2006. This new movie isn’t linked to that film or the much less fashionable 2012 sequel movie, Silent Hill: Revelation. As an alternative, Return to Silent Hill is a standalone film based mostly closely on Silent Hill 2.
On June 18, Deadline revealed that Cineverse, Bloody Disgusting, and Iconic Occasions Releasing—the identical trio of firms accountable for Terrifier 3—are bringing Return to Silent Hill to theaters. The horror movie will likely be launched on January 23, which does make me nervous, as that’s traditionally the month when film studios and manufacturing firms dump unhealthy movies into cinemas.
There isn’t a trailer for the film but, however right here’s an previous teaser from 2022:
“Return to Silent Hill hits theaters on the excellent time,” mentioned Mark Rupp, CFO/COO and co-founder of Iconic Occasions Releasing. “[It arrives after the] profitable current launch of the Silent Hill 2 sport remake that the film is predicated on, whereas additionally celebrating the twentieth anniversary of the beginning of the horror movie franchise.”
Yeah, that makes me much more nervous. The truth that the primary motive this factor is getting a theatrical launch is as a result of the current Silent Hill 2 remake did so properly doesn’t fill me with confidence.
Regardless, in January 2026, we’re getting a live-action adaptation of Silent Hill 2. If Return to Silent Hill seems to be unhealthy, properly, not less than we’ve bought a bunch of Silent Hill video games and remakes to play nowadays.
