The Purge 6 gets exciting update from creator James DeMonaco
The Purge creator James DeMonaco has finished the script for the sixth film. Four years after the latest entry in the horror franchise The Forever Purge hit screens, DeMonaco has revealed he has completed a new draft of the sixth movie's screenplay and has given it to Blumhouse head Jason Blum. He told Bloody Disgusting: 'I just finished a script. My producer, Sébastien Lemercier, has read multiple drafts, given me notes. We just handed it to Jason.' DeMonaco added he was 'really happy' with the script, and was hoping to start filming the sixth Purge movie either at the end of this year or in 2026. He said: 'I'm really happy with it. I hope they like it. I think it's cool and fun. We're hoping next year would be great to shoot, maybe the end of this year if timing works out. 'But now it's with the powers that be, so we'll see what happens.' While he didn't confirm it was Frank Grillo's Sgt. Leo Barnes - who appeared in 2014's The Purge: Anarchy and The Purge: Election Year in 2016 - DeMonaco teased a fan-favourite character would be returning for the next film. He said: 'People's favorite character might be coming back, I can say without naming who that is; a couple of people who could be. 'But someone's coming back who I love and I think the audience loves.' DeMonaco - who has written all five previous Purge flicks as well USA's The Purge TV series - added 'real warrior women' would take centre stage in the next film. He said: 'Then we create some real great female heroes in this one. There's some really amazing women. We've had some great women in the past, but real warrior women come forth here in a way that we haven't really explored on Purge night. 'It's been really fun to write. And I'm writing with my wife, so I'm getting a nice female perspective, and that's been really fun.' The Purge is set in a near-future America where all crime is legal for 12 hours every year. The original 2013 flick starred Ethan Hawke, Lena Headey, Adelaide Kane and Rhys Wakefield. In June 2023, DeMonaco said he had finished the first script for the sixth Purge movie. He told Variety: 'It's not completely different than previous movies, but it's a new America that we're entering into. 'In The Forever Purge, America kind of collapsed, and it's really kind of mapped itself according to different ideologies. 'The states are based on sexuality, religion and ideology. So we've broken apart and the state of discord is at its worst. We enter The Purge in that world.' Reflecting on the series as a whole, DeMonaco explained it was his 'dark indictment of American gun culture' that had inspired The Purge franchise. He said: 'I had this little, strange, dark indictment of American gun culture. I hate guns. 'To me, the scariest thing in the world would be a night when everyone was armed and it was legal to use these firearms. To me, there was nothing scarier than that notion.'

'Friday Night Lights 'Star Zach Gilford Files for Divorce from Kiele Sanchez After 12 Years of Marriage: Report
Zach Gilford and wife Kiele Sanchez are reportedly separating after 12 years of marriage. The Friday Night Lights actor, 43, filed for divorce from the Lost alum, 47, on Friday, April 18, according to legal documents obtained by TMZ. Gilford cited 'irreconcilable differences' as the reason for the longtime couple's split, and did not specify a date of separation, per TMZ. The outlet also reported that the Gilford is seeking joint legal and physical custody of the couple's two kids — Zeppelin, 7, and Revel, 4 — and checked a box to award his estranged wife spousal support. Representatives for Gilford and Sanchez did not immediately respond to PEOPLE's request for comment on Saturday, April 19. Related: Zach Gilford Shares Shocking Photos of His Swollen Face, Says He Still Has 'a Little Ways to Go' Sanchez — who got engaged in December 2011 and tied the knot in 2012 — starred together in 2014's The Purge: Anarchy. More recently, Sanchez portrayed Gilford's on-screen wife in a recurring role in 2022's Criminal Minds: Evolution, in which he played serial killer Elias Voit. The actors are quite private about their personal life, though Gilford occasionally shared glimpses into their time as both an on-screen and off-screen couple on Instagram. Sanchez's Instagram account, meanwhile, is private. "Fun times with my fake family (real wife, fake kids),' Gilford captioned a selfie of the pair with the actors who portrayed their on-screen children in 2022. The same year, the couple celebrated a decade of marriage with an anniversary trip, which Gilford also documented on Instagram, writing, 'Thank you to @sanchomonsto for 10 years of 'sexy-tinis.' " The actor also shared a photo of the couple kissing to commemorate his 41st birthday in January 2023.

Gilford and Sanchez welcomed their first child, daughter Zeppelin Adele Gilford, in November 2017, news that came years after the couple announced that they had lost a baby near the end of Sanchez's third trimester. 'We regretfully confirm that Zach Gilford and Kiele Sanchez recently lost their child to a late-term miscarriage,' a rep for the couple told PEOPLE in 2015. After welcoming Zeppelin via surrogate, the actors told PEOPLE, 'We have always wanted to be parents, and Zeppelin has made our dreams come true.' Opening up about fatherhood — and Sanchez — after starting their family, Gilford told Us magazine that he can 'tear up' just by watching her as a new mother. 'My wife isn't like anyone I've ever met in my life,' he said in the 2018 interview. 'I think when people meet her they just fall in love with her. I feel like she's taught me how to love and you just see her looking at this baby and you just know she's a mama lion and nothing will ever happen to this kid. It's really incredible.'
