THE EXORCIST Adds Geena Davis
Oscar winner Geena Davis has joined the cast of The Exorcist, based on the 1971 novel by William Blatty that inspired the original starring Linda Blair and Max von Sydow.
Davis will take on the role of Angela Rance, a woman of faith with family struggles. Despite the stress in her life, she tries to stay positive, but she’s having nightmares about a demon.
Which is never good, right?
