The Candyman trailer highlights a number of connections to the original film along with a compelling new focus
) at the start of the trailer, she asks, “Who would do that?” Cut to a lineup of white girls saying "Candyman" in the mirror five times. This kind of sly wit, and the evolution of Phillip Glass’ memorable score to an eerie rendition of “Say My Name” by Destiny’s Child, gives the trailer its own distinct tone, different from the more classical gothic vibe of Rose’s writing and direction.
In terms of its other connections to the original, Anthony is the name of the baby who disappears with Candyman in the 1992 film and whose return is brought about by Helen Lyle’s sacrifice. With this sequel seeming to take place in real time and utilizing flashbacks, if the decidedly '90s-style clothing shown in the opening bathroom scene are any indication, it stands to reason that this Anthony is one and the same, all grown up.
Candyman originally intended for baby Anthony to be his surrogate son, to make up for the child he’d lost in the 1800s when he was a man named Daniel Robitaille, killed by a racist mob after an interracial love affair. It would appear that after all this time, Candyman has come to collect and pass the torch, or hook, on to a successor.
