• The new film will be a continuation of the franchise, not a reboot, and will be set in a small Pennsylvania town in December 1985, 18 months after the events of the first movie.
• Special effects veteran Tony Gardner, known for his work on 'Zombieland' and 'Hocus Pocus 2', has been tapped to establish the zombie look for the 2025 'Return of the Living Dead' film, promising to 'up the horror' while staying true to the franchise's roots.
