'M3GAN 2.0' Gets Moved From January To March 2024

Ya just can’t keep a good doll down…or a bad one for that matter. It was a reletivly quick call for Blumhouse fo announce M3GAN 2.0 as the first film in what looks to be a franchise, raked in a very mighty $180 million back in 2022, but the film will be coming along a bit later than expected.

Originally announced for theatrical release on January 17, 2025 from Blumhouse and Universal, the upcoming M3GAN sequel will now release in theaters on May 16, 2025.

Allison Williams and Violet McGraw are back for the sequel, with Akela Cooper (Malignant, M3GAN) once again writing the script and James Wan on board to produce.

Stay tuned for more on M3GAN 2.0 as we learn it.

M3GAN is a marvel of artificial intelligence, a life-like doll programmed to be a child’s greatest companion and a parent’s greatest ally. Designed by brilliant toy-company roboticist Gemma (Get Out’s Allison Williams), M3GAN can listen and watch and learn as she becomes friend and teacher, playmate and protector, for the child she is bonded to.

When Gemma suddenly becomes the caretaker of her orphaned 8-year-old niece, Cady (Violet McGraw, The Haunting of Hill House), Gemma’s unsure and unprepared to be a parent. Under intense pressure at work, Gemma decides to pair her M3GAN prototype with Cady in an attempt to resolve both problems—a decision that will have unimaginable consequences.
