The 2019 horror film Ready or Not brought Radio Silence to the forefront. In fact, it swiftly paved the way for their work on Scream, Scream VI, and their upcoming horror film Abigail. Now, following the success for all of these different films, Ready or Not 2 is now in the works with a brand-new script having been completed.
As shared in an interview with Radio Silence, they call the script for Ready or Not 2 “an absolute f-king banger.” Additionally, they tease the early stages in which the film is currently at. Fortunately, it seems like everything is headed in the right direction.
Here’s what Tyler Gillett, one of the three members of Radio Silence, had to share on that front with Entertainment Weekly:
“It’s getting figured out,” Gillett begins. “That’s what we’ll say: Ready or Not 2 is getting figured out. What we can say is that there is a script that is an absolute f—ing banger of a sequel. And however it gets made, and in whatever capacity we are helping get it made, we are so excited that it’s happening. That movie is truly the love of our creative lives in a lot of ways.”
They’ve been hoping to get the sequel together ever since the first film was released in 2019:
“I don’t think we knew after making it that there would be so much story left to tell,” Gillett says. “We’re so proud of what that first movie is, we’re so proud of what the sequel is,” he adds. “We’re just really excited, and fingers crossed that it gets made.”
“And with Searchlight and Samara, they’re not gonna let it down,” Bettinelli-Olpin adds.
Hopefully we’ll have more details in the near future. It’s worth noting that the project hasn’t yet been greenlit, but this is a positive development on all fronts. After all, fans are no doubt eager to see Samara Weaving back for a sequel, and Gillett does give a warning to those cosplayers that chose to duplicate her bridal dress look:
“Don’t put it in storage just yet.”
