Danny McBride co-writing new Halloween movie

And for those wondering it has Carpenter's approval.

Halloween director John Carpenter wasn’t shy about expressing his distaste for Rob Zombie’s spin on his durable franchise. (Not shy meaning he called Zombie a liar and a “piece of sh*t.”) They’ve buried the hatchet, but the legendary filmmaker is positively gushing over the newer-than-new Halloween movie being lined up to terrify babysitters worldwide. Oddly enough, it’ll come with an Eastbound and Down twist.
In a Facebook post, Carpenter revealed that Pineapple Express director David Gordon Green and actor Danny McBride are joining the project in a big way. Green will helm the film with a script he’ll co-write with McBride. The two have teamed up for a number of projects like Eastbound & Down and Your Highness (a movie you thought you hallucinated), so there’s definitely a track record of experience together. Carpenter is confident that Michael Myers is in safe hands with these two.
“David and Danny both came to my office recently with Jason Blum and shared their vision for the new movie and… WOW,” shared Carpenter. “They get it. I think you’re gonna dig it. They blew me away.”
In addition to giving a hearty thumbs-up to the venture, Carpenter will provide his services as an executive producer and consultant when questions need to be answered. He may even provide music for the new Halloween. “Maybe. It could be kind of cool,” he notes.
Currently scheduled to arrive in October 2018, McBride has given an important warning for people hoping for a more Kenny Powers-esque take on Myers.
“David and I are thrilled to step outside of our comedic collaborations and dive into a dark and vicious horror,” said McBride. “Nobody will be laughing.”

Can't be any worse than Zombie's movies.

I liked the first one, second was straight garbage though.

He seems like the type that could pull of a good horror movie.

Very excited about this.

Meh. McBride being involved is worrisome

Zombie set the bar at Earthworm height so it shouldn't be too hard for McBride to top that.

What ever happened to the This is the End sequel

Making Michael Myers into a run of the mill serial killer was retarded.

I just hope they reboot it completely, e.g., new characters, plot.

I would have liked to see the Trick R' Treat writer get this. They nailed the atmosphere of a fall Halloween night.

Could be interesting

I like McBride and Green, but why do we need more "Halloween" movies?
The trailer would have to blow me away...maybe I'll watch but I'm undecided.

The only sequel that was similar to the first movie was Halloween IV. What made the first film great was not Michael Myers ripping people apart but rather him creeping around the town all day and night. Hopefully McBride can steer this new one in that direction.

Halloween II was turrible: had zero to do with the first/ no Michael, and the one shot of "Baton Rouge" at Trick-or-Treat was a girl on a skateboard.
But McBride is a solid writer. He's ready to put some Tiger Balm on this genre's nuts.
