Children of the Corn fans, a new film is on the way, and it was filmed during the pandemic. The new movie won't have anything to do with the original 1984 film or the series that has followed really. Instead, it will reimagine the story from the original Stephen King novel somewhat, using it more as a jumping-off point. Elena Kampouris ("Before I Fall") and Kate Moyer ("When Hope Calls") starring, as well as well known Australian talent Callan Mulvey ("Avengers: Endgame") and Bruce Spence ("The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King"), are the actors in this version, with Kurt Wimmer (Equilibrium, Ultraviolet) directing and being produced by Lucas Foster.
