While Rusev Day is quite the ‘thing’ right now, so too is Happy Death Day. Having impressed many genre fans last year – often described as a mash-up between Scream and Groundhog Day – the film has been a hot topic of conversation since its release. And now, we have some word on the first casting news for the upcoming Happy Death Day sequel.

As per Deadline, Jessica Rothe will be back as Tree Gelbman, Israel Broussard will be retruning as Carter Davis, and Life of Pi’s Suraj Sharma and American Horror Story’s Sarah Yarkin have joined the follow-up. Sharma is playing a characer called Samar Ghosh, “a science enthusiast and geek who enjoys coding in his spare time,” while Yarkin is playing Dre Morgan, a fellow geek and a “tom-boy with a sleepy feline gaze who is Samar’s partner-in-crime.”

In terms of what to expect from Happy Death Day 2, star Rothe has previously talked about how the sequel will look to explain a lot of the things left open from the first picture. Similarly, she described the follow-up as “a Back to the Future type of genre film where the sequel joins us right from where we left off.”

Original direct Christopher Landon is back to helm Happy Death Day 2, with the film to start shooting later this month.
