Chronologically, The Nun takes place before Annabelle: Creation, making it the oldest chapter in The Conjuring universe (so far).
The screenplay for The Nun was co-scribed by James Wan and Gary Dauberman, the later of whom has previously penned scripts for The Conjuring spinoffs Annabelle and Annabelle: Creation, not to mention 2017’s IT.
The film also features Taissa Farmiga (Final Girls, American Horror Story) and Charlotte Hope (Game of Thrones).
Look for The Nun to begin haunting US theaters on September 7th.
