As production draws near, anticipation is building among fans and horror enthusiasts alike.

I mean, can you even imagine Morpheus facing off against a demon? 
Fishburne's addition just solidified my faith in Mike Flanagan being able to create something truly special with this film. And let's be real, having Chiwetel Ejiofor and Scarlett Johansson on board already has me screaming "get the popcorn ready" 
And Flanagan needs that kind of depth and complexity to balance out all the jump scares 
.
This is going to be a massive disappointment if it doesn't live up to the hype... and I'm already losing sleep thinking about how it's going to disappoint me 
.
. Mike Flanagan's track record speaks for itself - he knows how to deliver spooky vibes that'll keep you up at night 
. I'm loving the anticipation building up for this film, and with filming in NYC, it's gonna be a cinematic treat 
️. Can't wait to see what kind of terror Flanagan has in store for us... March 12, 2027, mark my words! 
. I mean, Morpheus is iconic, but this? This is on another level 
. And with Mike Flanagan at the helm, you know it's gonna be a wild ride 
. Can't wait to see how he weaves everything together - the plot, the tension, the scares... all of it! 
what do you think about flanagan pushing the boundaries of horror? some people might say it's too much, but if he delivers a scariest movie ever, it'll be worth it... or maybe not? 
and can u believe the cast list? Chiwetel Ejiofor and Scarlett Johansson together on screen now that's what i'm talking about 
Now it seems like every other movie is just a watered-down version of something that's already been done. And Mike Flanagan is no stranger to messing with our heads, I mean have you seen some of the plot twists in Hill House? Still though, with Laurence Fishburne on board, this might actually be worth checking out... Morpheus is still one of my all-time favorite characters 
It's gonna be so hyped by that point, who knows how much of the buzz will still be real when it comes out...
and omg, March 2027 already feels like forever away... just gotta wait another 2 years for some serious scares
