One of the legacy characters who returns in Halloween Kills is Lindsey Wallace, a character featured in John Carpenter’s original classic. And what’s particularly special about Lindsey’s return is that Kyle Richards also returned to play the character she first played as a child way back in 1978, her “welcome home” to the franchise for the first time in well over 40 years.
Lindsey survives the events of Halloween Kills, coming face-to-face with Michael Myers but ending up in the hospital rather than the morgue. So will she be back next year?
David Gordon Green recently teased that we’ll probably be seeing more of Lindsey Wallace, and of Kyle Richards, in Halloween Ends, and she has now officially signed on.
Variety just broke the news that Kyle Richards will be back in Halloween Ends!
Variety notes, “Sources say that after Richards garnered positive reception from fans in Halloween Kills, the filmmakers re-wrote the script to include her character in Halloween Ends, crafting an expanded storyline for her return.”
“The last movie, I saw Jamie [Lee Curtis] on the set, but we didn’t have stuff together. So I’m really hoping that there is more stuff together,” Richards tells Variety. “I can’t talk about any storylines, but all I can say is that we start filming in January, and I’m so excited to return with Jamie Lee Curtis and David Gordon Green.”
Halloween Ends is currently dated for October 14, 2022, and Gordon Green has also recently teased that there will be a four-year time jump from the events of Kills to the events of Ends.
