Candyman, Candyman, Candyman, Candyman, Candyman... Watch yourself, we've summoned him. For the new issue of Total Film, we spoke to the creatives behind the new Candyman, a "spiritual sequel" to the iconic 1992 original.

 

Leading the new movie is Yahya Abdul-Mateen, best known for his roles in Jordan Peele's Us and HBO's Watchmen series. We know surprisingly little about his Candyman role, so we asked the actor about his character Anthony McCoy, a painter living in Chicago.

 

"He came out of art school and was hailed as the next big thing," says Abdul-Mateen. "We find him a while after that moment has slipped his grasp and he’s looking for inspiration. He goes back to Cabrini-Green looking for a story. Things start to happen around him that he’s drawn to for some odd reason. It puts a strain on his professional relationships and his personal relationships."

 

If you paid close attention to what Abdul-Mateen was saying, you’d have noticed he said that Anthony “goes back to Cabrini-Green”, and this is where the “spiritual sequel” part comes in – Anthony was the baby who Candyman kidnapped and used as bait in the original movie. Now all grown up (and with this film wisely ignoring that 1995’s Candyman: Farewell To The Flesh and 1999’s Candyman: Day Of The Dead ever existed), he returns to the place that he was born, looking for inspiration. What he finds instead... well, let’s just say it’ll be a big hook to viewers.

 

Cabrini-Green is now a very different prospect to when the first movie was made. With major redevelopment carried out since the late ’90s, upscale high-rise buildings hold sway. “Gentrification is an act of modern violence,” says director Nia DaCosta, touching on one of her film’s main themes. “We explore how it affects Cabrini-Green and the people who live there.”

 

Abdul-Mateen agrees. “It’s a story about others, a story about outsiders versus insiders, about what happens when intruders come in and the consequences of that,” he says. “The threat of gentrification is a horror story in and of itself, with people being displaced, and all of a sudden the faces are different, and things that used to be easy and familiar become distant and challenging. It’s a great opportunity for Candyman to haunt new faces. What happens when the ghost stays, but the people who he haunts change? Is this monster motivated by the same things? And what’s the response to that?”

В стареньком фильме была особая атмосфера того времени. Даже не знаю как её описать. Новый фильм будет другой.

Я очень люблю старого Кэндимэна, поэтому очень любопытно увидеть что снимут сейчас, конечно лощеная картинка сделает своё дело, но главное чтобы сюжет не трещал

We made CANDYMAN to be seen in theaters. Not just for the spectacle but because the film is about community and stories--how they shape each other, how they shape us. It’s about the collective experience of trauma and joy, suffering and triumph, and the stories we tell around it.

 

We wanted the horror and humanity of CANDYMAN to be experienced in a collective, a community, so we’re pushing Candyman to next year, to ensure that everyone can see the film, in theaters, and share in that experience.

It wasn’t the first time that MGM had received incoming offers from streaming services on its films that it had been forced to delay. The studio had numerous requests to off-load “Candyman” to a Netflix, Amazon or Apple, but producer Jordan Peele insisted on a theatrical release for the horror remake.

А выходило новое Колдовство? Я видимо спал.

Не, тут видно что вроде стараются лезть по серьёзному, но совершенно забыли атмосферу и стилистику оригинала. Будет что то типа "Хэллоуина" 2018. Новое поколение скажет скучно и не страшно. Поколение фанатов будут гнобить за перекос оригинала и т.д. И в итоге мы получим слабую 5 в рейтинге фильма.
