Directors Danny and Michael Philippou may be gearing up to release Bring Her Back, but a sequel to their breakout hit Talk to Me was greenlit by A24 in 2023. The directing duo gave a small but intriguing update on Talk to Me 2 when speaking with Indiewire. It turns out there are not one but […]
As for the timeline on when to expect the sequel, “So I’d say 2025 Bring Her Back, 2026 the documentary, 2027 [the new] horror, and then Talk to Me 2, Michael told IndieWire. “Maybe, I don’t know.” In other words, take this with a grain of salt.
Talk to Me was made on a reported production budget of just $4.5 million, which the movie was able to earn back on its first day of release. A24 acquired the film out of Sundance for a reported “high seven figures,” so A24 likely won’t want to stall momentum on a sequel for too long. At the very least, it sounds like there’s great potential for not one but two sequels to the breakout hit.
The brutal terror of Talk to Me unfolds when “a group of friends discover how to conjure spirits using an embalmed hand; they become hooked on the new thrill until one of them goes too far and unleashes terrifying supernatural forces.” Sophia Wilde, Miranda Otto, Alexandra Jensen, Joe Bird, Otis Djanji, and Zoe Terakes star in the A24 horror hit.
Stay tuned.
