Final Destination: Bloodlines 2025

Death is back—and this time, it’s personal.

On May 16, 2025, the Final Destination franchise returns with Bloodlines, a chilling new chapter that delves into the origins of Death’s twisted justice. Directed by Zach Lipovsky and Adam B. Stein, this sixth installment introduces Stefani Reyes (Kaitlyn Santa Juana), a college student plagued by recurring nightmares of a 1968 tower collapse. As her family begins to fall victim to gruesome accidents, Stefani uncovers a deadly legacy tied to her grandmother, Iris Campbell (Gabrielle Rose), who once experienced a premonition about the disaster. With the help of her estranged mother, Darlene (Rya Kihlstedt), Stefani races against time to break the cycle and save her loved ones.

The film features inventive and darkly humorous death sequences, including a lawnmower accident and an MRI machine malfunction, that are both terrifying and laced with physical comedy. These elaborate set-pieces pay homage to the franchise’s signature style while adding a fresh sense of storytelling finesse and visual flair. Bloodlines effectively balances fan service with originality, including callbacks to iconic death scenes from previous films. The film also marks the final appearance of the late Tony Todd as mortician William Bludworth, delivering a poignant monologue about life’s fleeting nature. His return adds emotional depth to the narrative, providing long-awaited answers about Bludworth’s enigmatic identity and his deep connections to the franchise’s lore.

Final Destination: Bloodlines is scheduled to be released in theaters and IMAX worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures, with international screenings beginning on May 14, 2025, and U.S. release on May 16, 2025. The film has a runtime of 110 minutes and is rated R for language and violent/grisly accidents.

For fans eager to revisit the series before the new release, all five previous movies are available for streaming on Max, and for purchase or rental on platforms like Amazon Prime Video, Fandango At Home, and Apple TV. Viewers are advised to watch the films in chronological order: Final Destination (2000), Final Destination 2 (2003), Final Destination 3 (2006), The Final Destination (2009), and Final Destination 5 (2011). If watching only one movie before the upcoming release, The Final Destination is recommended due to its direct connection to Bloodlines.
