Curry Barker’s Ghosts sets May 2027 release
Curry Barker’s Next Thriller, Anything But Ghosts, Sets Date for 2027 Release
The ghost hunting game is about to get a major update. Filmmaker Curry Barker is setting a firm release date for his next feature, Anything But Ghosts, aiming for a May 7th, 2027 debut. This highly anticipated movie is set to arrive just under a year after the phenomenal success of Barker’s previous work, Obsession.
Focus Features will handle the distribution of the new film, capitalizing on the momentum generated by Obsession, which became the mini-distributor’s top-grossing movie of all time. This connection between the two projects ensures that audiences can expect a cinematic experience built on a foundation of proven success.
The creative duo behind the project, Barker and longtime collaborator Cooper Tomlinson, have a shared history that adds a unique layer to the narrative. They partnered on the script for Anything But Ghosts and even shot the feature before their previous hit took off, suggesting a deep, intuitive connection between their creative visions.
The film plunges viewers into a terrifying scenario where the protagonists—a group of wannabe ghosthunters—find themselves completely overwhelmed as reality spirals wildly and terrifyingly out of control. It is a high-stakes dive into the chaos of the supernatural.
The cast brings a compelling ensemble to the role, featuring Aaron Paul, Bryce Dallas Howard, Violet McGraw, and Chris Reinacher. The feature was produced on a modest budget of just $5 million, demonstrating that high-concept horror can still deliver an engaging experience.
Beyond the scares, the film explores themes of obsession and the unpredictable nature of the unknown, perfectly echoing the tone set by the previous cinematic success.
The production is backed by a solid team of producers, including Jason Blum, Roy Lee, Steven Schneider, Adam Hendricks, and Greg Gilreath, ensuring a professional and polished final product.
For those who enjoyed the behind-the-scenes antics, Barker and Tomlinson are also known for their sketch comedy work on the YouTube channel That’s a Bad Idea, adding a touch of wry humor to the world of the supernatural they are creating.
With the release date locked in for 2027, Anything But Ghosts promises to be a deeply unsettling and thoroughly entertaining journey for fans of psychological thrillers and supernatural suspense.
