Jeepers Creepers: Reborn has faced delays since 2021 due to a lawsuit filed by Kirk D’Amico, head of Myriad Pictures. Plaintiffs in the suit, Infinity Films, another production company responsible for Jeepers Creepers 3, has been sued. D’Amico claims, “Myriad Pictures claims to have a contractual right of first negotiation and last refusal for worldwide distribution rights to Jeepers Creepers productions. It is also alleged that Myriad Pictures was left in the dark about the production and filming of Jeepers Creepers: Reborn.”
“Development of a fourth film was originally reported in 2020 and then shot down by Kirk D’Amico, head of Myriad Pictures, who has produced previous Jeepers Creepers entries. It seemed that a return of the controversial horror character was impossible, but then news of Screen Media distributing the fourth entry arrived last February. Iron Sky director, Timo Vuorensola, will be at the helm, as Screen Media claimed he was the perfect fit for a relaunch of The Creeper. A short teaser arrived late last year after months of silence, but the marketing had been silent ever since.”
