‘M3GAN 2.0’ Reboots on Digital Tomorrow with an Unrated Upgrade

Published

on

Taller, stronger, faster and now unrated, M3GAN 2.0 will be released on Digital tomorrow, July 15 — a mere 18 days after opening in theaters.

The sequel will launch on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and DVD on September 23 via Universal. A limited edition SteelBook 4K UHD will also be available.

Featuring gruesome moments too intense for a PG-13 rating, the unrated cut is upgraded with enhanced kills, deleted scenes, and more carnage.

Over 30 minutes of special features are included:

  • M3GAN 2.0 Unrated
  • Total Upgrade: Making M3GAN 2.0 – Equipped with some killer upgrades, the team that unleashed M3GAN returns. Cast and crew take you through the artistry and craftsmanship that went into building a bigger, badder, and bloodier sequel.
  • Droid DNA – Unveil M3GAN 2.0 as she prepares to tackle rogue military asset Amelia. Go behind the scenes and see the puppetry, technology, and animatronics that brought these deadly droids to life.
  • The Art of Slaying – The cast and stunt team discuss creating and executing the film’s most explosive and gruesome action sequences. Special effects and prop teams go into the gory details that make up the guts of the film.
  • Scene Breakdown: Embrace AI Convention – From a dance battle to a blood fest, this breakdown will show how each department worked together to create this epic and deadly sequence.

Written and directed by M3GAN helmer Gerard Johnstone, the sequel is produced by James Wan‘s Atomic Monster and Jason Blum‘s Blumhouse.

When an autonomous android engineered to be the ultimate weapon threatens M3GAN’s beloved Cady, M3GAN convinces her creator, Gemma, to give her a glow-up that makes the original A.I. diva even deadlier. Armed with wild new upgrades and her same iconic attitude, M3GAN claps back against the wannabe techno-terror in a fierce faceoff to crown the baddest bot built for maximum mayhem.

Allison Williams, Violet McGraw, Brian Jordan Alvarez, Jen Van Epps, Amie Donald, and Jenna Davis return to star, joined by Ivanna Sakhno, Aristotle Athari, Timm Sharp, and Jemaine Clement.

M3GAN 2.0 takes full advantage of its bigger budget, delivering more expansive set pieces and slicker production values,” Meagan Navarro wrote in her review. “It ultimately succeeds where it matters most: M3GAN never loses her edge in her infectious journey from villain to hero.”

Check back tomorrow for an exclusive clip from one of the new featurettes.

‘Hokum’ Heads Home to Digital Tomorrow Ahead of Physical Media Release in August

Hokum Review - Hokum Digital Release Date

After scaring up a strong theatrical run, Oddity director Damian McCarthy’s Hokum heads home to Digital this week.

Settle in for a spooky supernatural chiller as Hokum arrives on all Digital platforms to rent or own beginning June 2, followed by a Blu-ray/4K Ultra HD Combo and DVD release on August 11, 2026.

Adam Scott (“Severance”) stars in Hokum as reclusive novelist Ohm Bauman. When he retreats to a remote Irish inn to scatter his parents’ ashes, the staff’s tales of an ancient witch haunting the honeymoon suite take hold of his mind. Disturbing visions and a shocking disappearance draw Ohm into a nightmarish confrontation with the darkest corners of his past.

Peter Coonan (“The Alienist: Angel of Darkness”), David Wilmot (“Station Eleven”), Florence Ordesh (“Departure”), Michael Patric (“Frontier”), Will O’Connell (“Game of Thrones”), Brendan Conroy (“Bodkin”), and Austin Amelio (“The Walking Dead”) also star.

Get a peek at the upcoming physical media release below, including a few special features.

Spooky Pictures’ Roy Lee (Weapons) & Steven Schneider (Insidious) produce alongside Image Nation’s Derek Dauchy (Late Night with the Devil), Tailored Film’s Ruth Treacy, Julianne Forde, & Mairtín de Barra, and Cweature Features’ Ken Kao & Josh Rosenbaum.

I wrote in my review for Bloody Disgusting, “A quaint Irish hotel with a deeply haunted history awaits an American writer in McCarthy’s third outing, continuing his streak for folkloric tales of supernatural karma and spine-tingling terror with a dark sense of humor.”

What’s next from Damian McCarthy? He’s currently writing a haunted house movie, but recent comments suggest he may be moving into other genres beyond that upcoming project.
