From Collider:
The Exorcism is set to bedevil moviegoers this summer. The Russell Crowe horror flick, formerly titled The Georgetown Project, will hit theaters on June 7, with a release on horror specialty streamer Shudder to follow. The film’s North American rights, formerly in the hands of Miramax, have been acquired by Vertical Entertainment, who have arranged for its theatrical release.
The film centers around actor Anthony Miller (Crowe), whose troubles come to the forefront as he shoots a supernatural horror movie. His estranged daughter (Ryan Simpkins) has to figure out whether he’s lapsing into his past addictions, or if something even more horrific is occurring. It’s the second exorcism-related project for Crowe in as many years; The Pope’s Exorcist was a surprise hit last year, grossing $77 million USD on an $18 million budget. And he isn’t the only creative on the film with exorcism experience – director Joshua John Miller is the son of Jason Miller, who starred as Father Karras in the iconic 1973 fright flick The Exorcist.
