By Fuzzy Mushroom · Published
Two years after merging, Jason Blum and James Wan have named the combined company Blumhouse Atomic, with Blumhouse and Atomic Monster staying as separate labels under that umbrella. Variety, Deadline and The Hollywood Reporter say the joint slate has taken more than $2.5 billion worldwide against under $330 million in production budgets, helped in 2026 by Obsession and Backrooms. A new Saw chapter with Wan, plus Paranormal Activity and Blair Witch, sit on the 2027 slate beside originals such as River and The Revenge of La Llorona.
