Blumhouse Atomic Monster is now just Blumhouse Atomic

Two years ago, Jason Blum's Blumhouse and James Wan's Atomic Monster merged to form a new entity: Blumhouse Atomic. Blumhouse Atomic is a streamlined title aimed at simplifying the combined brand. In a statement to Deadline, Blum expressed that the merger has proven to be beneficial, stating, "Blumhouse Atomic is a natural evolution of what we've built together."

The companies have since continued developing horror films and TV shows separately. Under the Blumhouse Atomic umbrella, Blumhouse and Atomic Monster have collaborated on successful horror movies such as Obsession, Backrooms, and Insidious Out of the Further. Notably, the budget for Obsession, directed by Curry Barker, was under $1 million, yet it grossed $519 million worldwide, making it Focus Features' highest-grossing film ever.

Similarly, Backrooms, directed by Kane Parsons, earned over $400 million globally, becoming A24's highest-grossing release of all time.

Future projects under Blumhouse Atomic include The Exorcist: Martyrs, Barker's "buddy comedy" Anything But Ghosts, and the horror film Sleepover, starring Parker Posey. James Wan expressed his enthusiasm for the future of horror with Blumhouse Atomic, stating, "The future of horror comes from new voices, and Blumhouse Atomic gives us more ways to find them and support them for the long haul."

Wan emphasized the company's commitment to providing opportunities for filmmakers like Kane Parsons, Curry Barker, Josh Giuliano, and Dylan Clark, emphasizing the importance of creative freedom and lasting relationships beyond individual films.
