Leatherface is back! Texas Chainsaw Massacre is set to return to screens on Netflix with a sequel planned to premiere in February 2022. Netflix has revealed a first look at the iconic character in their newest poster.
The sequel brings the classic horror story into the modern world, taking place 50 years after the events of the original movie. The synopsis says:
“After nearly 50 years of hiding, Leatherface returns to terrorize a group of idealistic young friends who accidentally disrupt his carefully shielded world in a remote Texas town.”
“Melody (Sarah Yarkin), her teenage sister Lila (Elsie Fisher), and their friends Dante (Jacob Latimore) and Ruth (Nell Hudson), head to the remote town of Harlow, Texas to start an idealistic new business venture. But their dream soon turns into a waking nightmare when they accidentally disrupt the home of Leatherface, the deranged serial killer whose blood-soaked legacy continues to haunt the area’s residents — including Sally Hardesty (Olwen Fouéré), the sole survivor of his infamous 1973 massacre who’s hell-bent on seeking revenge.”
The exclusive poster for TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE is here.
