The creator of the franchise isn't counting on Michael Myers really being gone.
Over the more than 40 years since Halloween was unleashed in 1978, the franchise has seen highs and lows and been rebooted and had sequels negate the events of previous installments, but with David Gordon Green's trilogy of Halloween films, fans were seemingly given the final entry in the decades-long bout between Michael Myers and Laurie Strode.
What was notable about Green's trilogy is that Carpenter served as a producer, marking the first direct involvement he's had in the franchise since the first sequels in the early '80s. As far as what advice he might have for the next filmmaker to tackle the mythology, Carpenter joked,"I can't help the new filmmakers. Plus, they have so many advantages over what I had when I was the same age. That makes me hate them! It's all great.
