Bruce Campell Confirms: No Ash in 'Evil Dead'

Source: Twitter

Bruce "The Chin" Campbell - star of the 'Evil Dead' horror/comedy series and cult icon - took to his personal Twitter account last night to address some questions and rumors regarding the upcoming reboot 'The Evil Dead'. The film, directed by newcomer Fede Alvarez, written by creator Sam Raimi (with a recent script doctoring by 'Juno' writer Diablo Cody), and produced by Campbell himself, is planned for a 2013 release. Campbell, who played the main character and legendary chainsaw wielding badass Ash in the original series, is expected to make a cameo, but the popular actor had a bit of bad news for fans:

 

Then, to clarify the intent and scope of the new project Campbell had the following encouraging words:

 

 

So while the film may apparently have a new main character, it sounds like Raimi and crew are satisfied with the direction the reboot is taking and if it's good enough for Campbell, then we'll give it the benefit of the doubt.

Its good that they're doing something different.

I'm actually okay with this. No one could play Ash but Bruce Campell, so it'll be nice to see the Evil Dead face off another hapless schmuck

People complain because a reboot is too much like the original, and they complain because it's too different from the original. Maybe Raimi and Co. will bring us a brand new iconic badass like Ash... just not Ash.

At first I was mad, now I see why they did this. No one can top the original character of Ash and I think Rami and Campbell know this, so they decided to make new characters. Good move in my book. can't wait to see what they do.

That being said I give my support. No one wants to see the same thing over again. CHANGE!

I think it's just retelling but with entirely different characters. If that's the case, everything that happens will be different because it's driven by different characters.

whats the fucking point then? if there is no ash then its just another movie of kids getting killed by demons

No Ash, then No Evil Dead, No point in watching this Reboot.

Rami and Campbell are both involved, just taking the story to another level. I am all in
