Finally, the wait’s over! Final Destination 6, now officially titled Final Destination: Bloodlines, kicked off production earlier this year, marking the long-awaited return of this spine-tingling franchise after a 13-year hiatus. It all started when cinematographer Christian Sebaldt shared a compelling Instagram post in early March. Soon after, franchise producer Craig Perry confirmed the news, saying they aimed to hit theaters in 2025—just in time for the 25th anniversary of the original film. And get this: it’ll even be showing on IMAX screens!
Shaking Up the Formula
With the promise of a fresh spin, the franchise’s creator, Jeffrey Reddick, hinted that this sequel wouldn’t just repeat the old formula. He expressed his excitement to Dread Central, stating, “It’s not just going to be another kind of ‘we set up a group of people, they cheat death, and then just death gets them.’” Instead, Bloodlines dives deeper into its lore while keeping the essence of what makes a Final Destination movie thrilling. Reddick mentioned a unique twist that takes the story in a direction fans won’t see coming.
He elaborated to Collider, emphasizing that while the core theme of cheating death remains, this sequel expands the universe. “There’s an expansion of the world of Final Destination that I think fans are gonna be interested in,” he shared. Sounds like they’re ready to pull out all the stops!

Potential Plot
So, what’s the plot all about? According to industry scooper Daniel Richtman, Bloodlines follows 18-year-old Stefani, who is about to leave home for college. She’s been plagued by nightmares of a tragic tower accident from the 1960s. These aren’t just dreams—premonitions linked to her grandmother, Esther, who once thwarted death decades ago. But as fate would have it, Death isn’t done with their family yet. Stefani learns that her bloodline isn’t safe and that Death is coming back for unfinished business. Talk about a family reunion gone wrong!
Cast
The film boasts a promising cast, including Brec Bassinger, Teo Briones, and Kaitlyn Santa Juana. But hold on—Tony Todd is returning as the iconic mortician William Bludworth. He’s a familiar face from the original trilogy, and fans can’t wait to see him again. The character dynamics seem intriguing, with Stefani being the grounded, ambitious heroine trying to protect her family while dealing with the emotional fallout of leaving home.
Stefani Lewis is intelligent and ambitious, but her close relationship with her younger brother, Charlie, faces tension as she prepares to leave. Portrayed as moody but bright, Charlie joins Stefani on her journey to unravel the family’s dark past. And then there’s Bobby, a lovable jock who’s terrified of the looming threat, while his brother, Derek, dismisses Stefani’s warnings with a smirk. Throw in Julia, a snarky cousin with her agenda, and you’ve got a recipe for family drama laced with suspense.
With directors Zach Lipovsky and Adam B. Stein at the helm—who wowed execs during their unforgettable Zoom pitch—the film is set to offer an exhilarating mix of horror, humor, and familial bonds. They survived a pitch meeting that turned into a near-disaster, which fits the Final Destination vibe!
As Final Destination: Bloodlines heads towards its 2025 release, fans are left buzzing with anticipation. Will Stefani save her family from Death’s relentless grasp? Only time will tell!
