Sarah Michelle Gellar and Elijah Wood will be joining Samara Weaving in Searchlight Pictures’ Ready or Not sequel, Ready or Not: Here I Come.
The film, which has already begun production, also stars Kathryn Newton, Shawn Hatosy, Néstor Carbonell and Kevin Durand (recently seen in Abigail, from the same filmmaking team), as well as acclaimed horror filmmaker David Cronenberg.
Radio Silence’s Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett are back for Ready or Not: Here I Come, as are writers Guy Busick and R. Christopher Murphy. The first film starred Weaving as a bride who gets caught up in her new family’s wedding night ritual, in which a murderous game is played to appease an ancient family deal with the devil. Plot details for the sequel, however, are still unknown.
President of Searchlight Matthew Greenfield, however, did say: “We’re beyond excited to make another film with the phenomenal Radio Silence. With Ready or Not: Here I Come, we get to go on another ride with the amazing Samara Weaving, mix in awesome new voices, and bring audiences a fresh take that’s every bit as twisted and fun as the first one. This is for those who’ve been waiting, and those who didn’t see it coming.”
Tripp Vinson, James Vanderbilt, Bradley J. Fischer and William Sherak are producing. Executive producers are Chad Villella, Tara Farney, Greg Denny, Paul Neinstein, Busick, Murphy and Weaving. Richard Ruiz and Cornelia Burleigh are overseeing the Ready or Not sequel on behalf of Searchlight.
Ready or Not: Here I Come does not yet have a confirmed release date.
