Here’s the latest I can share based on recent reporting.
- Johansson’s recent and ongoing projects: There were reports in late 2024–2025 about her involvement in high-profile genre projects, including a new film in the Exorcist universe and talks around other franchise installments, which has kept her in the sci-fi/horror conversation.[2][3]
- Exorcist update: Multiple outlets in late 2024 to 2025 indicated she was attached to a new Exorcist entry produced by Universal/Blumhouse with Mike Flanagan shaping the project, signaling a potential bold new direction for the series.[3][2]
- Other franchise chatter: There has also been continued media attention on Johansson potentially reuniting with big franchises (e.g., Jurassic World discussions) and various feature projects in development, though specifics can shift quickly as projects move through development and casting phases.[5][7]
If you’d like, I can pull the very latest headlines from current outlets and summarize what studios officially confirm versus what’s speculation. I can also filter for sources in the UK/London area if you want local coverage. Would you like me to do that?
