The day is finally here. After quite a bit of production drama and numerous delays, the upcoming Netflix sequel to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre finally has a release date and an official trailer. The new film that picks up years after the original film is set to hit Netflix on February 18, 2022. This latest entry in the long running horror saga is a direct continuation of the original film and will basically do what Halloween and other franchises have done. The other sequels don't seem to exist in this timeline with all other incarnations of Leatherface being non-canon.
The latest entry picks up years later and will be an official sequel to the classic Tobe Hopper 1974 film. Fede Alvarez is attached as a producer which will hopefully bode well for the quality of this movie. This will be a much older Leatherface that's been lying in wait for decades.
"These people arriving in this town are going to awaken the giant", Alvarez exclaimed when talking about the long dormant Leatherface.
