While The Forever Purge just came out, Purge franchise creator James DeMonaco shared his thoughts on a potential sixth movie. This means potentially bringing Frank Grillo back to the franchise. Grillo played Leo Barnes in both The Purge: Anarchy and The Purge: Election Year.
DeMonaco revealed:
“Dude, my Purge 6 idea is all about Frank. It’s all about the Leo character. Without giving anything away, I think he’s off on his own, but he’s going to be called back into action, hopefully on Purge 6, if we’re lucky enough to do it. I hope that Leo comes back. That’s the goal. When I came up with Purge 6, he was the center of the idea. I’m hoping that we get to do that with him.”
This isn’t the first time it’s been brought up that Grillo would return to the Purge world. Earlier this year, the actor revealed:
“We are talking, [DeMonaco] and I, another Purge movie. He reached out to me not too long ago and Sébastian [K. Lemercier], the producer, and they’re like, ‘What do you think?’ and I’m like, ‘What do you think?’ and they’re like, ‘We talked to Universal and we’ll see Leo Barnes in the [next] Purge if we can come up with something great.’ I said, ‘I’m in. I’ll do it in a heartbeat.'”
