"The Exorcist: Believer" Shifts Release Date to Dodge Taylor Swift's Tour Film

Universal and Blumhouse's horror sequel "The Exorcist: Believer" has moved up its release date from October 13 to October 6 in order to avoid competing with Taylor Swift's concert film, "The Eras Tour." Swift's film, which will be shown in theaters across the United States, is expected to be a theatrical sensation, with fans encouraged to treat it as a celebratory event. "The Exorcist: Believer" is the first installment of a planned trilogy and sees the return of Ellen Burstyn as Chris MacNeil, who is drawn into a new paranormal event 50 years after the original film.
