We Might Have a Clue As to Linda Blair’s Fate in the New “Exorcist”

 “The Exorcist: Believer” opens October 6th, and it’s supposed to be the first installment in a trilogy.

Ellen Burstyn is back as Chris MacNeil, attempting to help two young girls who’ve apparently been possessed by the same demon that possessed her daughter Regan in the original movie.

Linda Blair famously played Regan, and there’s been no concrete news about her potential involvement.  But a new trailer just dropped, and it might contain a little spoiler about that.

In the clip, one of the possessed girls says, quote, “Are you looking for Regan?  She burns in hell!” So is Regan dead?  Was that soundbite creatively edited?  Is the demon lying?  They do that, you know.
