Warning: SPOILERS are ahead Halloween ends.Halloween ends star, Andi Matichak, recently pondered Allyson Nelson’s future after the events of the final film in the H40 trilogy. The latest entry in the decades-long slasher horror franchise sees the return of Jamie Lee Curtis in her final appearance as the eponymous Final Girl, Laurie Strode. Takes place four years after the brutal events of Halloween killsLaurie tries to reconcile with her past trauma by writing her memoirs. However, after helping Corey Cunningham (Rohan Campbell) deal with local bullies, they retaliate and accidentally push Corey toward a fateful encounter with Michael Myers.
Matichak stars as Allyson, Laurie’s granddaughter, who survived the chaos of both Halloween (2018) and Halloween kills when her parents didn’t. Instead of going to college as she planned, Allyson lives with Laurie as they both struggle with the lingering trauma of that brutal Halloween night. Allyson is attracted to Corey because he also struggles with the accidental death of a child he was in his care for years before. After another bloody Halloween night in which Corey and Michael both wreak havoc on Haddonfield, Allyson finally leaves town with hopes of a brighter future.
In a recent interview with The Hollywood ReporterMatichak shares her thoughts on Allyson’s future after the events of Halloween ends. When asked if she believes her character will finally have a happy life after Myers, the actor admits that she thinks Allyson will, although she notes that the trauma and loss will always be with her. Check out what Matichak shared below:
That’s the hope. After all the pain and trauma she’s been through, she won’t be able to forget or pretend it doesn’t exist, or just put it aside and pretend it never happened. It will always be in her life, and hopefully her vulnerability will not affect all her decisions and relationships in the future. It will certainly play a part in it, but she still has a long way to go to figure out how to really live life in a way that isn’t always harmful. Maybe it can be helpful sometimes.
Will the Halloween franchise continue?
Director David Gordon Green has previously stated that: Halloween ends concludes his H40 trilogy of films. Now that Myers is permanently dead and Curtis says she will no longer be returning in the role, the… Halloween franchise seems to be a point that leaves the future uncertain. No sequel possible due to the finality of Halloween ends‘ story, the film series could be without another entry for at least the next decade or two, similar to Friday the 13th franchisee.
Original by John Carpenter Halloween was intended to kick off an anthology film series that produced a new scary movie every year. Due to Myers’ popularity, Halloween II brought the character back for a sequel that seemingly killed him in the hopes that Carpenter would backtrack on his anthology plans. However, due to the negative feedback from Halloween III: Season of the Witch the following year, Myers was resurrected and murdered several times over the next 30 years. With the priority of the film series that evil never dies, Halloween ends may not be the last time Myers stalks Haddonfield.
