The sequel is rumored to dive deeper into the origins of the cursed hand, potentially exploring the tragic story of Duckett, whose haunting death by suicide opened the first film in shocking fashion.

Talk 2 Me was announced by A24 on August 8, 2023, after Talk to Me became the distributor’s highest-grossing horror film in U.S. box office history. The sequel reunites directors Danny and Michael Philippou, with Danny co-writing the script alongside Bill Hinzman—the same team that made the first film such a terrifying hit. Fun fact: the original concept was sparked by an idea from Bluey producer Daley Pearson!
