Over the weekend, James Wan became only the third director to have two movies in one year that opened above $40 million at the US box office, with The Conjuring and Insidious Chapter Two (the first to do it were the Wachowskis with The Matrix sequels). Unsurprisingly, after the success of the Insidious follow-up, Entertainment One (eOne), FilmDistrict, and Sony Pictures Worldwide Acquisitions have been quick to announce they are developing Insidious 3.
