“I’m a big fan of Radio Silence. I love their films,” he told Bloody Disgusting. “I love the original. I think Ready or Not is a total blast. I love Samara in that film. I love the cast of that movie and the kind of nugget of the mythology that you get.”
Wood added, “What I love about this sequel is that it really deepens that mythology, so I’m stoked for people to see it. It’s a movie that takes place almost immediately after the first one ends and enriches everything you love about the original film.”
Premiering April 10, 2026, the sequel’s storyline is being kept secret. The first movie revolved around a bride’s (Weaving) wedding night which takes a sinister turn when her eccentric new in-laws force her to take part in a terrifying game.
