This summer, Oscar® winner Jordan Peele unleashes a fresh take on the blood-chilling urban legend that your friend’s older sibling probably told you about at a sleepover: Candyman. Rising filmmaker Nia DaCosta (Little Woods) directs this contemporary incarnation of the cult classic. For as long as residents can remember, the housing projects of Chicago’s Cabrini Green neighborhood were terrorized by a word-of-mouth ghost story about a supernatural killer with a hook for a hand, easily summoned by those daring to repeat his name five times into a mirror. In present day, a decade after the last of the Cabrini towers were torn down, visual artist Anthony McCoy (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II; HBO’s Watchmen, Us) and his girlfriend, gallery director Brianna Cartwright (Teyonah Parris; If Beale Street Could Talk, The Photograph), move into a luxury loft condo in Cabrini, now gentrified beyond recognition and inhabited by upwardly mobile millennials.

Production was brought back to the Cabrini Green neighborhood where Candyman (1992) was filmed. Though the high-rise buildings have long been demolished, the Rowhouses still exist.
William Burke is seen reading the Clive Barker novel "Weaveworld." Barker created the character of the Candyman in his short story "The Forbidden."
LaKeith Stanfield was considered for the role of Anthony McCoy, but he turned it down for Judas and the Black Messiah (2021), which garnered him his first Academy Award nomination.
The film reuses the same sound of the crying baby from the original film.
Jordan Peele was originally attached to direct the project early on in production before moving into a producer's role. Nia DaCosta was hired as director, and later became the first black female filmmaker to have a movie open at first place at the box office.
"Detective Lipez: Who are you? Anthony McCoy: I am the writing on the walls. I am the sweet smell of blood on the street. The buzz that echoes in the alleyways. They will say I shed innocent blood. You are far from innocent, but they will say you were. That's all that matters."
"Troy Cartwright: Black people don't need to be summoning shit."
