Wilson even joked that their “fake marriage has lasted longer than many real ones.”
As the sun sets on the Conjuring franchise…I am overwhelmed. There aren’t enough thanks to go around for the thousands of people who’ve contributed to the making of these films…and the millions who’ve watched them.
ilson, who plays Ed Warren, a renown demonologist alongside his clairvoyant wife, Lorraine (Farmiga), wrote in an Instagram post published Friday.
Talking about his onscreen partner, Farmiga, Wilson said:
What to say? Our fake marriage has lasted longer than many real ones. I adore you.
He added,
Wilson also praised filmmaker Michael Chaves, who directed earlier movies in the series like The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It (2021) and The Nun II (2023), and is now directing Last Rites, coming to theaters next year.
(Chaves also directed The Curse of La Llorona, but as he told Entertainment Weekly before, it’s not officially part of the Conjuring universe.)
You have beautifully taken the reins and I can’t WAIT to see this one put together.
Wilson wrote and also thanked other important people, like the creators of the series, James Wan and Peter Safran.

On Thursday, Farmiga posted a framed wedding photo of Ed and Lorraine on Instagram.
Roundabout 5,000 days ago, this guy and I signed a WB contract and said ‘I do’ to embodying Ed and Lorraine Warren. Today, he wraps. I have another 12 hours of laughter and insanity with him and then abruptly, he will walk off set, peel off sweat-soaked demonologist garb, shave off his side burns, flash that dazzling smile and bid our fake marriage adieu. Yeah…I got them feels today. It was a match made in heaven, PWilz. A hell of an era. Here’s to 12 years.

Wilson and Farmiga first played Ed and Lorraine in The Conjuring (2013), directed by Wan. The movie was such a big hit that it turned into a huge horror universe, kind of like the Avengers but for scary movies, with fans all over the world. This includes the Annabelle movies about the creepy doll from the first film and two The Nun movies, starring Farmiga’s sister Taissa as Sister Irene.
Not much has been shared about the story of The Conjuring: Last Rites, but Chaves told EW that the post-credits scene from The Nun II will lead right into it.
In that scene, Ed and Lorraine get a call about a possessed priest, Father Gordon (Steve Coulter), which sets up the events of their final movie together.
This is going to be that final chapter, so it is a little bit of a tease of that.
Chaves said in an interview conducted last year
The director added:
I think what makes this film so cool, makes The Nun so cool, is that, from the very beginning, the possession of Maurice was one of these center point elements in the Conjuring universe. It was in the first Conjuring, it’s definitely a pivotal event in the entire universe.
In the comments of Wilson’s Instagram post, Wan shared a heartfelt message to honor his actors. He wrote:
The characters that you and Vera have breathed life into will endure forever. Not every day we get to create this kind of cinematic legacy. Thank you, buddy. Forever indebted to you. Though Connery taught us to never say never!!
