"THEY FOLLOW" Will Be a Bigger, Darker and Crazier Sequel Says Star Maika Monroe
It’s no surprise that a sequel to, David Robert Mitchell’s, ‘IT FOLLOWS’ was in the works after the craze and cult following the film has gathered over the years and NEON is all about ‘THEY FOLLOW’ as franchise star Maika Monrow recently sat down with Collider and talked all about the upcoming sequel and how the returning director took things to the next level and will take them to the moon and back on “THEY FOLLOW”.
In the first movie, Monroe’s Jay Height is a young woman followed by an unknown supernatural force after a sexual encounter. In the sequel, the threat is now EVERYWHERE.
“David is brilliant,” Monroe tells Collider. “[It Follows] was changing the game in the genre, and he wouldn’t ever make a sequel if he didn’t think it was going to top it. He just knows what he wants to do and what he wants to make. I mean, at first I’m like, ‘Oh, a sequel? Where are we going to go here?’ And I read it, and it’s just so fucking good. It’s so good.”
Monroe continues, “I’m so excited. I think where you’ll meet Jay at this point is maybe not what’s expected, but it’s so cool. It’s just, of course, as everyone says for sequels, literally, though, is just bigger and darker and more fucked up. Reading it was the craziest thing ever.”
We’ll bring you more on ‘THEY FOLLOW’ as we get it.
