In February 2011, recurring cast member Tony Todd said that if Final Destination 5 was a success at the box office, then two sequels would be filmed back-to-back. On August 23, when asked whether he would be directing a sequel, Steven Quale elaborated: "Who knows. Never say never. I mean, it'll be up to the fans. We'll see how this one performs internationally, and if it makes as much money as the fourth one, I'm sure Warner Brothers will want to make another one". On January 11, 2019, a new installment from Warner Bros.' New Line Cinema was announced to be in development. At the time, Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan were writing the script; the plot was described as a "re-imagining" of the franchise. On August 21, Final Destination star Devon Sawa expressed interest in returning to the franchise in a reboot.
In March 2020, series producer Craig Perry said the film would "take place in the world of first responders" featuring EMTs, firefighters, and police officers. When asked if the story was set in the same canon as the previous installments, he said "reboot is probably too strong of a word ... it makes it sound like they're going to change everything, but it's definitely a Final Destination movie". On October 5, 2020, series creator Jeffrey Reddick confirmed that a sixth film had been in the works prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In October 2021, Lori Evans Taylor was reported to be the new writer for the film. On January 11, 2022, HBO Max announced it would distribute the film, Jon Watts joined the project as a producer, and Taylor was confirmed to have written the screenplay alongside Guy Busick. In July 2022, Reddick said the film would differ from the franchise's formula. In September 2022, Freaks filmmakers Zach Lipovsky and Adam Stein were selected from over two hundred candidates to direct the film. During a Zoom meeting with executives and producers from New Line to make their pitch, Lipovsky and Stein staged a freak accident like the ones in the film franchise at the end of the call; insiders said the joke, which featured a combination of prerecorded footage and visual effects and showed the filmmakers' passion for the film, sealed the deal and got them hired.
