Two years after combining horror houses, Jason Blum’s Blumhouse and James Wan’s Atomic Monster have dropped the “Monster” in favor of a cleaner title: Blumhouse Atomic. “When we merged our companies, we believed the whole would be greater than the sum of its parts, and that is exactly what has happened,” Blum said in a statement to Deadline. “Blumhouse Atomic is a natural evolution of what we’ve built together. The Conjuring franchise, Insidious, Saw, no filmmaker has created more horror franchises than James Wan, and together we’ve brought some of the genre’s most recognizable properties under one roof. Bringing Saw back to James, with a new chapter on the way, is a perfect example of what we can do together. We have the output of a studio with the creative freedom and financial discipline of an independent company, and more opportunities than ever to take these stories beyond the theater and into television, games and live experiences.”
