The Exorcist: Martyrs is an upcoming American supernatural horror film written and directed by Mike Flanagan. It is the seventh installment in The Exorcist franchise.

It stars Scarlett Johansson, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Diane Lane, Jacobi Jupe, Sasha Calle, Scoot McNairy, Gil Bellows, Laurence Fishburne, and John Leguizamo. Prior to the project's announcement, a sequel was planned for The Exorcist: Believer (2023) entitled The Exorcist: Deceiver, with David Gordon Green originally set to return as director, but he left the project following the critical failure of Believer. In May 2024, Deceiver and its sequel were officially canceled when the new film was announced, with Flanagan writing, producing, and directing the film. After two release delays, casting took place throughout November 2025 to March 2026, when principal photography began in New York City and completed in June. The Exorcist: Martyrs is scheduled to be released in the United States by Universal Pictures on March 12, 2027.
