There were currently rumblings concerning Universal being interested in a follow-up to supervisor Gerard Johnstone as well as author Akela Cooper’s M3gan, as well as it appears those rumblings are in fact mosting likely to transform into something rather than you could have anticipated.
Variety records that M3gan 2.0 — a sequel to Universal’s shock viral hit concerning a vocal singing, dance, killing friend crawler– is a go, with Cooper going back to pen the manuscript in addition to starlets Allison Williams as well as Violet McGraw, that will both repeat their corresponding duties. Since its January sixth launching, the initial M3gan‘s raked in a remarkable $100 million around the world versus a moderate $12 million manufacturing spending plan, making it exactly the type of ticket office sensation that Universal as well as generating companion Blumhouse would certainly be crazy not to act on.
Interestingly, Universal hasn’t revealed whether Johnstone will go back to route or if either Amie Donald or Jenna Davis– the stars that represented M3gan literally as well as articulated the doll– will be included in thesequel But the workshop has actually explained that it prepares for M3gan 2.0 to strike theaters on January 17th, 2025.
