But like all good things\u2026 I think we\u2019re finishing up at the right time. It feels like this movie is a good way to wrap up the world, at least for now. It\u2019s been over a decade with the \u2018Conjuring\u2019 Universe. I\u2019ve made many acquaintances who\u2019ve become long-term friends.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wan is especially grateful to actors Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson, who play Lorraine and Ed Warren, respectively. \u201cVera and Patrick have always been the center of these movies,\u201d says Wan. \u201cThey have such a great relationship, onscreen and off \u2013 they\u2019re such good friends. I think that really comes across and the audience sees how authentic it is. I think it brings much more reality to the characters that they play. It\u2019s a big part of why fans out there love these films. I have always said, \u2018They come for the fright and the scares, but they really stick around for Vera and Patrick.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/CLR-FP-052_High_Res_JPEG_custom-proxy-scaled.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"429\" data-attachment-id=\"65170\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/entertainment\/movies-entertainment\/saying-goodbye-to-the-conjuring-universe-is-bittersweet-happy-and-sad-say-james-wan-and-his-fellow-filmmakers-about-the-conjuring-last-rites-in-cinemas-starting\/attachment\/clr-fp-052_high_res_jpeg_custom-proxy\/#main\" data-orig-file=\"http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/CLR-FP-052_High_Res_JPEG_custom-proxy-scaled.jpeg\" data-orig-size=\"2560,1073\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"CLR-FP-052_High_Res_JPEG_custom-proxy\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/CLR-FP-052_High_Res_JPEG_custom-proxy-300x126.jpeg\" data-large-file=\"http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/CLR-FP-052_High_Res_JPEG_custom-proxy-1024x429.jpeg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/CLR-FP-052_High_Res_JPEG_custom-proxy-1024x429.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-65170\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/CLR-FP-052_High_Res_JPEG_custom-proxy-1024x429.jpeg 1024w, http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/CLR-FP-052_High_Res_JPEG_custom-proxy-300x126.jpeg 300w, http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/CLR-FP-052_High_Res_JPEG_custom-proxy-768x322.jpeg 768w, http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/CLR-FP-052_High_Res_JPEG_custom-proxy-1536x644.jpeg 1536w, http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/CLR-FP-052_High_Res_JPEG_custom-proxy-2048x858.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo credit: Warner Bros.
