Is there a new Twilight movie coming out in 2024?
Twilight Of The Dead news is starting to roll in as George A. Romero’s final zombie movie heading into production. When Romero died in 2017, he had one last zombie movie he planned to make in the decades-spanning franchise he started with 1968’s Night of the Living Dead. While the last three Of The Living Dead movies didn’t compare with the first three that Romero directed, there is still a great love and anticipation for the zombie movies made by the near-undisputed master of the genre. Before Romero made Night of the Living Dead, zombies were very different creatures, people on the brink of death brought back to serve voodoo practitioner. It wasn’t until Romero that zombies as modern audiences know them were born.
Twilight of the Dead is set to be the sixth zombie movie in Romero’s franchise. While Romero passed away in 2017 and so was never able to create the movie himself, it is based on the treatment he wrote prior to his death. Twilight Of The Dead will also take place on a tropical island, which plays into ideas that Romero himself presented in previous movies in the franchise. If it wasn’t for Romero’s zombie creations, there wouldn’t be TheWalking Dead, there wouldn’t be movies like Shaun of the Dead or 28 Days Later, and soon fans will see how the master had planned to finish his franchise with Twilight of the Dead.
The most recent Twilight of the Dead news is simple yet incredibly reassuring, as it’s at least been confirmed that the final George A. Romero zombie movie is getting ready to go into production. The new movie in the Night of the Living Dead franchise starts filming in late 2023 in Puerto Rico. Twilight of the Dead is based on a treatment for a script that Romero wrote before he died in 2017. There is also the Twilight of the Dead news that the story will be about people on a tropical island. It is reportedly going to “[delve] into the dark nature of humanity from the perspective of the last humans on earth who are caught between factions of the undead.”
Twilight of the Dead is confirmed as the next, and last, movie by George A. Romero, the final chapter in the franchise that he started with Night of the Living Dead. Romero died in 2017, but before his death at the age of 77 , he had started writing Twilight of the Dead. The movie was announced in 2021, but there has been little in the way of news until now. However, development on Twilight of the Dead jumped forward in the summer of 2023, and it is preparing to start filming later in the year. This means the Twilight of the Dead release date will likely come sometime in late 2024 or early 2025. Whether it is in theaters or a streaming service remains to be seen.
