Last year, franchise creator James DeMonaco (writer/director of The Purge, The Purge: Anarchy and The Purge: Election Year) revealed that he plans for the fifth movie in the series to be the last. Speaking with EW, DeMonaco said America’s annual 12-hour lawless rampage will come to an end.

“I think it’s a great way to end it all. We want to end it all, I think, in this one, and I’m very excited. When I came up with the idea and pitched it to everybody, they seemed psyched, and I think it will be a really cool ending, how we take this one home.”

The film will be produced by Jason Blum, Man In A Tree duo DeMonaco and Sébastien K. Lemercier, and Platinum Dunes partners Michael Bay, Brad Fuller and Andrew Form.

The Purge series kicked off in 2013 with the first film, a smaller scale home-invasion thriller starring Ethan Hawke. It went on to gross $89.3 million worldwide and kick started the franchise, which to date has pulled in $456.8 million in worldwide grosses across four films (with the total box office grosses for each film out gaining its predecessor) .

The series made the transition to television last year with the 10-episode event series of the same name on USA network. A second season of The Purge was ordered last year as well.
