For years director Sam Raimi, actor Bruce Campbell, and producer Robert Tapert hinted that they might be working on a fourth Evil Dead film, even after the Fed Alvarez reboot. But, when the Starz Ash vs Evil Dead series happened (and gave fans everything they wanted and more), it was assumed a film would not come to fruition. But apparently, a fourth film is still on the table. At a panel at Comic Con, Tapert had this to say about it:
“Nothing’s off the table. We’re thinking about what that could be, and who that would please. Sam [Raimi] talked for many years, teasing the world that we were going to make ‘Evil Dead 4’. And that kind of turned into a TV series. Now Bruce [Campbell] and I are going, ‘Well, there’s a possibility of a movie here.’ So there could be one. Anyways, we’ll see what happens.”
Tapert also addressed the lack of Army Darkness references in the first season of Ash vs Evil Dead:
“So, ‘Army of Darkness’ is owned by MGM, and we just never had a chance to properly reference it in the first season. I read somebody’s online thing, ‘Oh look, they’re only pulling from these two [‘Evil Dead’] movies.’ This season, we do bring up Ash’s events in ‘Army of Darkness’, and reference it. It was more that there wasn’t a place for it in our storytelling that we needed to talk about that. If he started blabbing to these shop clerks about, ‘Yeah, I went back to the Middle Ages and did all these things,’ [it would just be exposition]. But that is in his memory bank, and he’s going to pull it out at the appropriate time.”
Season Two of Ash vs Evil Dead premieres on Starz on September 23, 2016.
