Final Destination: Bloodlines, the sixth film in the series, is currently in the works with a brand new cast and plenty more splashy gore to go around. It arrives on the heels of a string of successful installments, which have grossed nearly $700 million worldwide.
The first film in the franchise, starring Devon Sawa and Ali Larter, followed a group of characters with deadly premonitions and was a surprise hit, earning New Line a tidy profit of $112 million worldwide.
