Жүжигчин Брюс Кэмпбелл “Ash vs. Evil Dead” цуврал дууссанаас хойш тус дүрийг дахин бүтээхгүй гэдгээ мэдэгдлээ.
Жүжигчин Брюс Кэмпбелл “Evil Dead” цувралын алдарт дүр Эш Уильямсыг дахин амилуулахгүй гэдгээ баталлаа. Тэрээр 2018 онд “Ash vs. Evil Dead” цуврал өндөрлөснөөс хойш энэ дүрээс хэдийнэ хөндийрсөн бөгөөд нас болон ур чадварын хувьд дүрийн шаардлагад нийцэхгүй хэмээн үзэж буйгаа илэрхийлжээ.
Хэдийгээр Эш Уильямсын дүр ийнхүү төгсгөл болж байгаа ч Брюс Кэмпбелл болон найруулагч Сэм Рэйми нар “Evil Dead” франчайзын бүх төсөлд үргэлжлүүлэн продюсероор ажиллах юм. Тэдний хувьд кино төслүүдтэй санхүүгийн болон бүтээлч холбоотой хэвээр үлдэж байна.
“Evil Dead” франчайзын хувьд Эш Уильямсын дүргүйгээр хоёр шинэ кино гарсан бөгөөд гурав дахь бүтээл болох “Evil Dead Wrath” 2028 онд нээлтээ хийхээр төлөвлөгдөөд байна. Одоогоор “Evil Dead Burn” бүтээл үзэгчдийн хүртээл болоод байгаа билээ.

Here’s a story that’s not particularaly groovy. Earlier this week, new reports spread that actor Bruce Campbell was done playing Ash Williams, his iconic character from the Evil Dead franchise. Which, of course, upset many fans because Ash is freaking awesome. However, Campbell himself has now responded to the news to say, yes, it’s true. But no, it’s not news.
“Apologies if this news seems new,” Campbell posted on X. “It’s hard to communicate everything with everyone. I tapped out after [Ash vs. Evil Dead]. Mostly, the reasons were ability and interest, in equal measure. I didn’t want Ash to be compromised by declining skills and as a borderline Geezer, my interests have diverged. I’ll always love Evil Dead to death—literally.”
The underrated Ash vs. Evil Dead ended in 2018, so, in Campbell’s mind, the character has been retired for the better part of a decade. And, of course, in that time we’ve seen two new Evil Dead movies, neither of which mention the character, with a third one on the way. But, of course, that didn’t stop us from holding out hope that the Boom Stick-wielding, chainsaw-slinging Ash could pop up at some point.
Honestly though, what better way to send off a character than three seasons of a television show all about him? Plus, we’d imagine many of the fans disappointed by the news probably didn’t even watch it, which is part of why Campbell is done in the first place. So go watch Ash vs. Evil Dead, learn more about the classic character, and then let him ride off into the metaphorical sunset.
As he also mentioned, though, Campbell will be part of Evil Dead ’til the death. He and director Sam Raimi are producers on all the films, so they still have input and a financial interest. Ash might be gone, but the cash continues.
Evil Dead Burn is now available on demand. Evil Dead Wrath is coming in 2028.
