A Pot-o'-Gold Goes Missing in this First Trailer for Leprechaun Returns!

The SyFy Network has released the first trailer for Leprechaun Returns. This is the first film in the series, since 2014's Leprechaun: Origins. There have been a total of eight films in the franchise, with the first one starring Jennifer Anniston and Warwick Davis, way back in 1993. This latest title follows the first film, with a Leprechaun searching for his pot-o-gold. Meanwhile, a sorority house is being built over his golden stash. This latest film stars: Taylor Spreitler (The Contractor, 2013), Sai Bennett, Pepi Sonuga, Ben McGregor, and Emily Reid. Steven Kostanski (The Void) has directed this feature, with more film details below.

A creature feature, Leprechaun Returns was developed by a number of production companies. SyFy has been involved, along with Blue Ice Pictures and Out of Africa Entertainment. This team endeavour is slated for a mid-December run on Digital platforms.

This latest film follows a similar plot, compared to the original. In both films, a crazed leprechaun searches for his gold, while killing anyone who gets in his way. Though, in this film, this little green fellow is without his magical powers.

Fans of the series might remember that SyFy created the former film, Leprechaun Origins. This title did not have the quintessential Leprechaun. But, he will return this time, in December!

Release Date: December 11th, 2018 (Digital).

Director: Steven Kostanski.

Writer: Suzanne Keilly.

Stars: Taylor Spreitler, Mark Holton, Linden Porco
