Universal Pictures has released the first official trailer for Halloween Ends.

The upcoming slasher will pick up where 2021’s Halloween Kills left off, with Jamie Lee Curtis’ original heroine Laurie Strode continuing her personal fight against Michael Myers. The one-minute trailer shows Laurie and Michael violently facing off against each other, with the latter also haunting the other residents of Haddonfield. It also plays into the nostalgia of the beloved franchise, with scenes from the older films being weaved into the recent trilogy.

Halloween Ends will mark the third and final film in the Halloween franchise’s latest trilogy, following Halloween Kills and 2018’s Halloween. They serve as a direct continuation of the original 1978 film, and is set 40 years after Laurie survived Michael’s first attack.

Joining Curtis in the film are Judy Greer as Laurie’s daughter Karen Nelson and Andi Matichak as granddaughter Allyson Nelson, while James Jude Courtney reprises his role as Michael from the first two films of the new trilogy. David Gordon Green serves as the director while Malek Akkad, Jason Blum and Bill Block will produce and John Carpenter,, Jeanette Volturno, Couper Samuelson, Danny McBride, Green and Ryan Freimann will executive produce.

Watch the trailer above. Halloween Ends hits theaters October 14.
