The Strangers 3 Release Date and Trailer[edit]

It would be really good to know the release date of the movie.Also, it would be great to get a trailer for the movie. Palekaja (talk) 11:10, 27 November 2022 (UTC) لايوجد تاريخ او وقت محدد لأطلاق الفيلم انما هذه فقط اشاعات[reply]

The Strangers 3 release date 178.138.33.235 (talk) 10:17, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

We don't work for production. This is not a forum to discuss the film only how to improve the article. Mike Allen 16:01, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The Strangers 3 trailer and release date[edit]

The third "The Strangers" movie is currently in post-production. After the post-production is finished, Lionsgate Entertainment will share the trailer for The Strangers 3. When does the post-production finish? Well, we could expect for a trailer in March. That's when the post-production finishes. So after 5 months of post-production we will get a trailer! Currently, they have been working for 3 months.

      Other informations will be shared after we will get something official from Lionsgate. 86.125.62.114 (talk) 15:44, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That not true, how do you know when post production hasn't finished yet? Nor did Lionsgate say anything about a release date? Palekaja (talk) 21:16, 5 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Character Names[edit]

My website, IsTamaraHome.net, is going to be revealing the names of characters which have yet to be revealed as of today. The information will be live in a few hours so my question is what's the best way to put it into the wikipedia page? Previously any references to my website were completely deleted in favour of a Collider article which used the information from my website anyway, so I'm given to understand that fan sites are not reliable sources. So what's the best way to add this information in? The article on my site which will reveal the character names is providing sources so should I use those instead for the Wikipedia entry?

Hi. This has been explained on your talk page with links provided a week ago. It is ok if the article does not have character names right now. Wikipedia is not a breaking news site. We only write what is already in third party reliable sources. Mike Allen 14:31, 26 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm aware of that which is why I didn't wanna cite my site again because I know it's not classified as a reliable source. That being said, would this count as a reliable source? Spotlight is a service run by the actors themselves where they input information about their work? I'm not sure if this is classified though as a reliable source so I don't want to add it in yet. Screamfan1999 (talk) 20:42, 26 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Also, I noticed someone has already added it and referenced my site, can confirm that wasn't me who did that.
Screamfan1999 (talk) 20:42, 26 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No, because at the bottom of the site it says, "The information in this profile has been provided by or on behalf of the member concerned. Whilst every effort has been made to ensure that the information is correct, Spotlight cannot accept responsibility for its accuracy". It's good enough for your site, but not Wikipedia per WP:NOTSOURCE. We can wait until mainstream sources report it. This is no rush to include information. Question though, how do you search for actors on that site? Mike Allen 20:55, 26 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

As far as I'm aware I don't think you can't search for actors on the site unless you're a casting agent or something along those lines. If the actors have shared their profiles, which most do, on public forums like their Instagram, Twitter, IMDB, etc, then you can find their profile.

All three filmed simultaneously?[edit]

Are we for sure that the whole trilogy was filmed at the same time? The only quote from the producer Roy Lee, "I think the next three are in production next month with another filmmaker that people will know". But did it really happen? If we don't have more sources backing this up, it should be removed. Mike Allen 14:38, 9 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, the entire trilogy was filmed together. Madelaine Petsch confirmed this in an interview. This doesn't count as a source, but you can find the interview here: https://istamarahome.net/madelaine-petsch-talks-the-strangers-trilogy/ Screamfan1999 (talk) 08:54, 8 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Update- it did. Mike Allen 20:49, 9 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yes I did say that haha Screamfan1999 (talk) 12:20, 10 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I never didn’t believe you. On Wikipedia we just have to wait until it’s official and reported in mainstream sources. Mike Allen 15:39, 10 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
