It’s the end of an era. Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga are set to take their final bow as the fictional versions of Ed and Lorraine Warren in The Conjuring: Last Rites.
While the Conjuring Universe, now four films deep in the main series with multiple spinoffs from Annabelle to The Nun, is known for its chilling scares, it’s the central romance between its paranormal investigators that’s become the franchise’s beating heart. The unwavering loyalty and love between Wilson and Farmiga’s characters as they battle intense demonic enemies and save each other from death, more than once, quickly instilled emotional stakes that only deepened with each film.
That culminates in Last Rites, where Ed and Lorraine Warren are set to take on their most dangerous case yet: the Smurl family haunting. This time, it’s personal. But for Wilson and Farmiga, it’s a case that brings their journey as one of horror’s favorite couples to a fitting, heartfelt end. And it’s a journey they look back on fondly, though with a little disbelief.
