Kane Parsons Eyes Backrooms Limited Series After A24 Record
Kane Parsons says his dream is a Backrooms limited series to reach the main ending, after his film set an A24 opening weekend record.
Kane Parsons, director of the A24 horror film Backrooms, has revealed that he envisions a limited series as the ideal way to conclude the story. In a recent interview, Parsons said his "dream scenario" would be a limited series for Backrooms to reach the main ending.
Parsons adapted the feature from his viral YouTube series and has said he has had a set overarching story arc from the beginning. He previously told Variety that he planned for the series to go outside the confines of the film.
The film itself has been a breakout hit. It scored the best opening weekend for an A24 movie ever, and Parsons became the youngest director to have a number one movie at the box office.
Dread Central reported in September that a Backrooms sequel is in the works, with Parsons returning as director. Whether that sequel will lead to the limited series Parsons hopes for remains to be seen.
