Ready or Not had horror fans roaring with Radio Silence’s splashy mix of gore and goofiness. But at the end, Grace Le Domas née MacCaullay (Samara Weaving) survived the deadly game of hide and seek and took down the whole Le Domas gaming dynasty with her. A happy ending, right? Wrong.
Ready or Not 2: Here I Come is a sequel that shows the games have only just begun for Grace. Screenwriters Guy Busick and R. Christopher Murphy have re-teamed with directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, and Weaving is reprising her role as Grace. Joining her in this much-anticipated sequel are Kathryn Newton, horror icon Sarah Michelle Gellar, Shawn Hatosy, Néstor Carbonell, Kevin Durand, Olivia Cheng, David Cronenberg, and Elijah Wood. But what’s Ready or Not 2: Here I Come all about?
Well, Grace wakes up handcuffed in a hospital gown, only to be informed that the Le Domas family’s defeat has triggered a new game “against the high counsel families. Double or nothing.” It’s a new level of horror, with a clutch of rich and ruthless families competing to kill Grace and her estranged sister Faith (Kathryn Newton). And oh man, that countdown has us amped! There will be blood, and plenty of more eat-the-rich thrills.
The games begin this spring, when Ready or Not 2: Here I Come comes to theaters.
