This new image all but confirms that Yahya Abdul-Matten II’s character, Anthony McCoy, will be handed the torch and take on the role of Candyman.
No, in fact, it undeniably looks like Watchmen star Yahya Abdul-Matten II, suggesting that his character Anthony McCoy will be inextricably linked to the hook-handed spectre.
A haunting new image from the upcoming Candyman may well have revealed something very important about the direction of the highly anticipated horror sequel.
The image depicts a shadowy figure, clearly the titular tormentor, but it certainly does not look like returning actor Tony Todd under the guise of Candyman.
