Released in 2019, Ready or Not was one of the best horror films of the late 2010s. In it, Samara Weaving portrays Grace, a new bride who discovers the twisted nature of her in-laws on her wedding night. Because of a curse, they often hunt down a new member of the family in a violent and depraved game of hide-and-seek. The film has garnered an 89% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes. It also reportedly made $57.6 million at the global box office against a $6 million budget. So, a potential sequel was always on the cards.

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,” he added.
