Even though the film earned over $137 million at the box office, it received majorly negative reviews only. The film was released on digital platforms by Universal Pictures Home Entertainment on October 24, 2023, it also began streaming exclusively on Peacock in the United States on December 1, 2023. It was later followed by a Blu-ray, DVD, and 4K UHD release on December 19, 2023. Now, it has arrived on OTT.  

The Exorcist sequels in development

The Exorcist: Believer was envisioned as a trilogy. While Believer performed solidly at the box office, recouping its production cost, it was criticised by reviewers and fans. For now, we’re told Universal remains firmly possessed by its new IP — two more Exorcist films will still be made. But sources say Believer’s reception will almost certainly demand some degree of creative rethink for the next two films, reported The Hollywood Reporter.
