Prequel Blair Witch 3 On Back Burner?

MovieHole recently spoke with Dan Myrick from Haxan Films about the prequel Blair Witch movie, and whether it will actually be made.

"The fact of the matter is, Ed and I have an existing deal in place to write a 'Prequel Script' for Artisan, but they have yet to decide whether or not they want to exercise this deal, so we've put it on the back burner for now and have since moved on to other projects. Ed is tweaking his script, 'White Trash' and I'm in the process of trying to set up my 'Tomorrow Man' project.", explains Myrick. "We'll just have to wait and see what Artisan decides to do with the Blair franchise."
