Toby Wilkins Is Directing The Grudge 3

Toby Wilkins is all set to direct The Grudge 3. According to Variety, Sam Raimi and Rob Tapert will be overseeing production on this second sequel to the popular Columbia Pictures franchise.

Story elements are being kept secret at this time. Wilkins will be taking over the reins from Takashi Shimizu, who directed the first sequel. Wilkins was hired earlier this year to produce a number of The Grudge related short films to promote the last film.

A release date hasn't been set at this time, but the film will most likely go into production starting in early January.

The Grudge 3 was released May 12th, 2009 and stars Matthew Knight, Shawnee Smith, Mike Straub, Aiko Horiuchi, Shimba Tsuchiya, Emi Ikehata, Takatsuna Mukai, Johanna Braddy. The film is directed by Toby Wilkins.

    Toby seems to be a good director so I hope this turns out to be a good end to this reinvented franchise

    I don't really care to tell you the truth if they make a third, it wouldn't really hurt the franchise completely. The first will be remebered, and maybe the second. It doesn't matter if the third os even remembered. SoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo it might even be good.( I say that with doubt )

    The Grudge is so damn stupid! Why go off and make another one? I saw five minutes of the first one, and it was hella boring! I almost stabed myself in the face. "Screw YOU Guys I'm Going Home".

    It cant get worse? Are you serious? This, this is worse, much worse. Everything about Grudge is stupid. I laughed at the so called "scary" parts. It sucks so hard. I mean the ugly kid makes cat noises...scary!OOOOOOOH!
