Josh Ruben just posted a photo of the Heart Eyes 2 screenplay beside the killer’s mask. His entire Instagram caption? “😍😍” The title page reads “Current draft” and credits Ruben and Darcy Fowler as the writers, with a story by Christopher Landon and Michael Kennedy.
Ruben’s script photo comes just over a week after Luminate listed Heart Eyes 2 for a January 2027 shoot in Thailand. That’s the first real indication of when cameras could roll.
And now we have a wedding to go with it. The Cinemaholic reports that Gigi Zumbado will reprise her role as Monica alongside Mason Gooding as Jay Simmonds and Olivia Holt as Ally McCabe. According to the site, it’s Monica’s destination wedding that brings Ally and Jay to Thailand. She’s Ally’s best friend, and the Heart Eyes Killer is back to terrorize the couple while they’re there.
I broke the news that a Heart Eyes sequel was in the works ahead of Valentine’s Day this year, when Ruben had already completed a draft. We later reported that Mason Gooding was in talks to return as Jay, followed by Olivia Holt as Ally. In the original, the two were coworkers whose biggest mistake was looking enough like a couple to catch the attention of a masked killer who hunts sweethearts on Valentine’s Day.
Paramount moved up a week to , giving it two weekends in theaters before Valentine’s Day. In the meantime, that mask beside the script has a story of its own. Ruben told our podcast .
