Halloween: New trailer shows Jamie Lee Curtis back as Laurie Strode, and she's out to get Michael Myers for good

Curtis returns to the 'Halloween' series 40 years after the original movie, bringing back her character of Laurie Strode.

"He is a killer, but he will be killed tonight." Those are the final words by Jamie Lee Curtis in the new trailer for 'Halloween'. Curtis returns to the 'Halloween' series 40 years after the original movie, bringing back her character of Laurie Strode.

By the looks of the latest preview for the new 'Halloween' film, directed by David Gordon Green disregards all of the previous sequels, as well as the Rob Zombie-directed reboots. While those films technically don’t exist in this current canon, the new film will "pay homage to every Halloween movie, while going back to the roots of John Carpenter’s original vision", according to Danny McBride, who co-wrote the script with Gordon Green.
