The director of ‘M3GAN’ has provided an update on the film’s sequel.
Killer dolls have long been used as the primary antagonist in various horror flicks, but M3GAN has undoubtedly added something new to the genre. Despite being occasionally hilarious, M3GAN has risen to the top of the box office thanks to the film's marketing strategy and bizarre premise, proving that having the internet as the bad guys is just as frightful as anything supernatural.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Since its release on January 6, M3GAN has certainly had a great start to the year, garnering favorable reviews from critics and a significant box office revenue of over $120 million. So, considering the film is still relatively new, and given how poorly some sequels performed in past generations, it is still too early to provide updates on the sequel.
"Well, I can't say too much about those sorts of things. All I can say is that I'm here in L.A. and been thinking about it, working on it, and I'm just catching up with them this week to talk about it and do a debrief. It's really important to do a debrief on the first movie, like a post-game analysis, and look at what worked and how we can do it again. I mean, Jesus Christ, it's difficult to replicate the success.
The sequel is under the working title M3GAN 2.0, and though it would take much time until we see M3GAN dance her way to theaters again, one thing's confirmed: we haven't seen the last of her yet. The unrated version of the film is now streaming on Peacock, where viewers can see some scenes that are too much for cinema. But if you prefer the theatrical cut that is somehow more child-friendly, the PG-13 version cut is on Peacock, too.
M3GAN comes to Blu-ray and DVD on March 21. While you wait, you can watch an unrated clip of M3GAN savagely tearing Brandon's ear off.
