Interestingly, Álvarez and Levy have been working together for over a decade. The two began their creative partnership in 2013 when they first joined forces for the ‘Evil Dead’ reboot. Levy’s performance as Mia, a young woman battling addiction and evil forces, received massive praise. Álvarez’s work on the film was also well received. They then reunited for ‘Don’t Breathe’ in 2016. The psychological thriller follows three youngsters who break into a blind war veteran's house, unaware of his abilities. Following its success, the second installment, released in 2021, and focused on a different storyline. In the second part, viewers saw the blind man raise his daughter, Phoenix (played by Madelyn Grace). He was also seen fighting dangerous individuals from his past. While further details about ‘Don’t Breathe 3’ have not been released yet, fans will likely see Rocky and the Blind Man go up against each other again as further chaos unfolds.
