Smile, one of the biggest horror film of 2022, is OFFICIALLY getting a sequel and we’re all here for it.
It’s not surprising that a Smile sequel is a top priority for Paramount Pictures, given the success of the first film. However, it’s important to note that the lack of details about the sequel means that it’s still very early in the development process. It’s possible that Parker Finn (director) is currently working on a script, but it’s also possible that the studio is still in the planning stages and hasn’t started on the sequel yet.
As for the original stars returning, that’s also up in the air and will likely depend on the story and availability of the actors. Overall, it’s exciting news for fans of the horror genre, and we’ll have to wait for more details to emerge about the Smile sequel.
Smile was initially intended for a direct-to-streaming release on Paramount+, given the increasing trend towards streaming releases. However, the positive test screenings and subsequent theatrical release proved to be a smart decision, leading to the film’s impressive box office success. Given Smile’s status as one of the biggest original hits of 2022, it’s understandable that a sequel is in the works.
