With Bruce Campbell retiring from his iconic Evil Dead role, the franchise needs a replacement for Ash Williams – and it already has one.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Evil Dead 6 needs to come up with a new deadite-slaying antihero to replace Ash Williams, and the franchise already introduced the perfect replacement half a decade ago. Bruce Campbell has officially retired from playing Ash and has said that the only way he would return for another Evil Dead film is if series creator Sam Raimi returned to direct it.
This means that when Evil Dead 6 inevitably gets made, it’ll need to come up with a new character to anchor the series. In its past few installments, the Evil Dead franchise has become an anthology series tackling new characters and storylines in each movie, but it’ll eventually resume its unified continuity.
Not only is Brandy a lovable, intriguing character who stood out from the rest of the crowded ensemble of the Ash vs Evil Dead series and would be a joy to see on the big screen; she would also help continue the franchise’s focus on strong female leads. This focus on female protagonists has been seen in the last two Evil Dead films, with Jane Levy’s Mia Allen in the 2013 reboot and Lily Sullivan’s Beth in Evil Dead Rise.
How Brandy Barr Could Fit Into Evil Dead 6 There are a few different ways to bring Brandy into Evil Dead 6. Ash could mysteriously go missing and Brandy could go searching for him. She could come into possession of one of the three Necronomicons , sending her on another violent adventure to kill some demons. Brandy and her friends could go up to one of the cabins from the movies to investigate, Blair Witch-style, and end up inevitably awakening the demons within.
