The forthcoming sixth Purge film has gotten a positive script update from Frank Grillo. However, fans of the series will be disappointed as well.

Speaking to ScreenRant, Grillo revealed that the script is finished. However, this is the final film in the series, he insisted.

“The script is done. It basically centers around Leo Barnes, my character,” Grillo revealed. “It would be the last of the last of the last, it's like the guy who keeps retiring.

“James DeMonaco is going to direct it, if it happens, and it's a matter of money. It's a matter of how big they want the movie to be, how much money they want to spend on the movie, considering they've done a lot in this franchise. But it's a great script,” he added.

Frank Grillo is most known for his role in the MCU as Crossbones. He was introduced in Captain America: The Winter Soldier and reprised the role in Civil War and Avengers: Endgame. Grillo also voiced the role in What If? in 2021. His other notable credits include Warrior, The Grey, Zero Dark Thirty, Kingdom, and Prison Break.
