Fresh off a hugely successful theatrical run, Parker Finn and Paramount Picture’s Smile 2 is hitting digital outlets this week, just in time for the upcoming Thanksgiving holidays.
Smile 2 will be available at watch at home from tomorrow, November 19.
Starring Naomi Scott, Smile 2 has, at the time of writing, grossed $131.9 million at the global box office, off the back of a $28 million budget.
In Smile 2:
“About to embark on a new world tour, global pop sensation Skye Riley (Scott) begins experiencing increasingly terrifying and inexplicable events. Overwhelmed by the escalating horrors and the pressures of fame, Skye is forced to face her dark past to regain control of her life before it spirals out of control.”
Also returning for Smile 2 is scream king Kyle Gallner (Scream, The Passenger, Strange Darling), who had a starring role in the first movie, with the sequel adding Rosemarie DeWitt (The Staircase), Lukas Gage (The White Lotus), Miles Gutierrez-Riley (The Wilds), Peter Jacobson (Fear the Walking Dead), Raúl Castillo (Army of the Dead), Dylan Gelula (Dream Scenario) and Ray Nicholson (Panic), who shows of a smile very reminiscent of his acting legend father, Jack.
In a recent interview with Screen Rant, Finn (who has also been tapped to direct an upcoming remake of Andrzej Żuławski’s Possession with star Robert Pattinson…) hinted that Smile 2 may not be the end of the franchise, and could, in fact, just be the beginning.
I do think that there are so many exciting places that Smile could go. For me, it’s still always about wanting to do something thematically rich that’s centered on character stories. I love where this film goes, and right now I’m excited for audiences to see Smile 2. Hopefully, if they embrace it, I think that there could be a really interesting future for Smile.
If you missed Smile 2 in theaters, make sure you check it out tomorrow on your digital outlet of choice.
