The first teaser trailer for David Dordon Green's The Exorcist: Believer screened during Universal's CinemaCon panel back in April, and while the footage has yet to be released online (and likely won't be), we do have a first official look at the horror sequel via a production still.

The image features Green and what appears to be some sort of occult symbol etched into the floor. Is this how Pazuzu (or some other demon) manages to return?

Leslie Odom Jr. plays the father of a young girl who goes missing in the woods with a friend. When both children wind up being possessed, he calls in Chris MacNeil (Ellen Burstyn) for help.

The movie also stars Ann Dowd, Lidya Jewett, Raphael Sbarge, Jennifer Nettles and Olivia Marcum. A recent report claimed that Linda Blair would also reprise the role of Regan MacNeil, but that's yet to be confirmed.

Widely considered one of the scariest movies ever made, William Friedkin's The Exorcist focused on a possessed young girl (Blair) and her mother's (Burstyn) attempts to free her from the grip of the demon with the help of two priests (Jason Miller and Max Von Sydow).

Of course, the movie already has two sequels. The first, John Boorman's surreal The Heretic, was critically panned and actually had very little to do with the events of the first film. However, William Peter Blatty's The Exorcist III (based on his novel Legion) was a lot better, and served as a more direct follow-up to the 1973 classic.
