The upcoming sixth installment of *The Purge* franchise, starring Frank Grillo, is set in a “collapsed” America, exploring a dystopian future where the country has broken down along ideological lines. Frank Grillo, reprising his role as Leo Barnes, will be central to the story, which takes place in a deeply divided and chaotic United States.
In this new film, the U.S. has fragmented into states based on conflicting ideologies, such as sexuality and religion, creating a perilous landscape for its citizens. The story will pick up after *The Forever Purge*, which depicted America’s descent into lawlessness, and this film will expand on the aftermath, showing a society that has completely unraveled. Grillo mentioned that *The Purge 6* will present the darkest vision of America yet, with characters trying to survive in a country that is at its most discordant.
Creator James DeMonaco has completed the script, and while the core themes of violence and survival remain, the narrative promises a fresh take on the series’ exploration of societal collapse and political fragmentation.
This installment marks another chapter in the franchise’s evolution, keeping the tension high as it tackles more profound social issues within its horror framework.
