Don’t make her drink alone — Octavia Spencer will return in Ma 2!
Blumhouse announced that the sequel is in development at its The Business of Fear event examining the growing power of horror subgenres.
“Ma has proven to be a social phenomenon since its release in 2019, with fans eagerly embracing the film and Octavia’s iconic performance as Ma. Ma likes to say ‘don’t make me drink alone,’ so we’re thrilled Octavia will join us again for a second round,” said Blumhouse Founder/CEO Jason Blum.
In the 2019 film, Ma offers the basement of her home for some kids to party, but her hospitality curdles into obsession, turning a teenage dream into a terrorizing nightmare.
Ma earned more than $60 million in global box office. No word on if director Tate Taylor or writer Scotty Landes will return for the sequel.
Revenge is one of 24 thriving subgenres Blumhouse identified in a research study last year that aimed to assess the state of horror.
