In a recent interview with The Playlist, Frank Grillo revealed he’s “committed” to star in a sixth film in The Purge franchise.
Committed! We committed to doing that— ‘Purge 6' with [James DeMonaco] directing. It’s based on the Leo Barnes character. I’m excited. He’s going to send me the script. He just finished it. So, yeah, I’m really psyched about that. I love doing the ‘Purge’ movies ... I’m psyched, they called me and said James wanted to direct one more and I’m like, ‘Don’t even tell me. I’m in.’”
