After a long hiatus from the franchise, Carpenter is returning as executive producer and creative consultant for the new Halloween movie from Blumhouse Productions, but that might not be his only job.
According to one producer, they are currently also trying to nail Carpenter down to provide the score for the film.
John Carpenter is one of those people, having written, directed and scored Halloween in 1979.
Horror, perhaps more than any other genre, tends to produce icons both onscreen and off.
