The trio of original Blair Witch Project cast members is requesting residual payments, creative input, and grants for aspiring filmmakers from Lionsgate for future franchise reboots.
The original cast members believe that the recent reboots of the series lacked their creative input and failed to capture the suspense of the original film, emphasizing their unique insights as the creators.
Joshua Leonard expressed disappointment over the lack of recognition and compensation from the profits made by the Blair Witch franchise over the past 25 years, calling it disrespectful and classless.
The original Blair Witch Project filmmakers acknowledge Lionsgate's right to monetize the intellectual property but highlight the invaluable contributions of the original cast members.
