By | February 20, 2023

Evil Dead Rise‘s runtime has been revealed, cementing it as the longest movie in the Evil Dead series.

According to the Big Screen Leaks Twitter account, who is the editor-in-chief of One Take News, Evil Dead Rise‘s final runtime sits at 1:32:49 — just over 92 minutes. At slightly over an hour and a half, it’s the longest theatrical cut of an Evil Dead movie, barely beating out 2013’s Evil Dead’s 91-minute runtime.

Evil Dead Rise will be led by Alyssa Sutherland (Vikings) and Lily Sullivan (Picnic at Hanging Rock), along with Gabrielle Echols (Reminiscence), Morgan Davies (The Girlfriend Experience), and Nell Fisher (Northspur). Executive producer and franchise star Bruce Campbell previously confirmed that the upcoming film wouldn’t have any ties to the previous films and will mainly center around the Necronomicon. 

Evil Dead Rise is being written and directed by Lee Cronin (The Hole In The Ground), who was handpicked by franchise creator Sam Raimi, as well as Bruce Campbell and Robert Tapert. It is executive produced by Raimi, Campbell, Tapert, Romel Adam, John Keville, and Macdara Kelleher.
