Final Destination 5 2011

Final Destination 5 is a 2011 American supernatural horror film directed by Steven Quale and written by Eric Heisserer. It is the fifth installment in the Final Destination film series and a prequel to Final Destination (2000). The film stars Nicholas D'Agosto as a young man who has a premonition about a suspension bridge collapsing, and saves a group of people from Death, only to learn that they cannot escape its plan. Emma Bell, Miles Fisher, Arlen Escarpeta, David Koechner, and Tony Todd star in supporting roles. Despite The Final Destination (2009) being announced as the final film in the franchise, that film's financial success led to the development of a fifth installment, which began in 2010. Filming took place in Vancouver, as with the first three installments. As of 2025, it is the latest film in the franchise to be shot and presented in 3D. Final Destination 5 was theatrically released on August 12, 2011, and on DVD on December 27, 2011, by Warner Bros. Pictures and New Line Cinema. The film received mixed reviews from critics and grossed $157 million worldwide, becoming – as of April 2026 – the third highest-grossing film in the franchise.
