"SCARY STORIES TO TELL IN THE DARK 2" Get's An Update From Director
“We Have A Great New Story”
That’s what director André Øvredal had to tease us with in regards to SCARY STORIES TO TELL IN THE DARK 2. Paramount and Entertainment One Productions have been laying low in regards to details for the project but we can confirm the following: Director André Øvredal (The Autopsy of Jane Doe) is returning to direct the follow-up film, with Dan Hageman and Kevin Hageman also returning to write the script. Guillermo del Toro is once again also involved, reportedly with a “story by” credit.
Speaking with Coming Soon this week, Øvredal mostly kept his lips sealed.
“We have a great new story and some fun, scary stories implemented in a good way. I’m very excited about the sequel,” he told the site. “I shouldn’t [say] and I can’t really, you never know what you can and can not say about these things, it’s hard to talk about at this stage. I know it’s been out there in the public already, so I can’t give away too much [chuckles].”
Øvredal added, “I’m part of the process of developing, not the writing because it’s Dan and Kevin, who wrote the first one, but I’m definitely part of the development process on this one.”
Some of the films original cast is even in the dark about what exactly is going on with the new sequel. Guess we’ll have to wait and see…
