Focus Features Sets May 2027 Release for Anything But Ghosts

Focus Features has scheduled Curry Barker’s horror-comedy Anything But Ghosts for a theatrical release in May 2027, with seven reports giving May 7 as the date and one listing May 6. The one-day discrepancy remains unresolved. The film stars Barker and his longtime collaborator Cooper Tomlinson, who co-wrote the screenplay, and is produced with Blumhouse-Atomic Monster. Barker directs the film, in which he and Tomlinson play aspiring ghost hunters who find themselves in over their heads as events spiral out of control. The announced cast also includes Violet McGraw, Chris Reinacher, Bryce Dallas Howard and Aaron Paul. Focus’s announcement described the characters as fame-seeking wannabe ghost hunters; another account characterized them as fraudulent paranormal investigators. The release marks Barker’s next feature after Obsession, his breakout horror film. Reports describe Anything But Ghosts as connected to the same fictional universe, though the film’s precise relationship to Obsession is not fully established in the available details.
