It was announced in late 2018 that DaCosta was chosen to helm what has been described as a spiritual sequel to the original Candyman (1992).

The film is being produced by Jordan Peele through Monkeypaw productions, with Peele citing the original as “a landmark film for black representation in the horror genre.” Yahya Abdul-Mateen II is set to star in the film, with Tony Todd returning as the film’s titular villain, with Teyonah Parris and Nathan Stewart-Jarrett set to star alongside him. Universal Pictures plans to release the film theatrically on June 12, 2020, with production beginning in the spring of 2019, and wrapping in September.2019
