Filming has wrapped on the It Follows sequel, They Follow, and Deadline has revealed that Landman and The Endless actor James Jordan is part of the cast.
Naturally, plot and character details remain shrouded in secrecy, though the sequel is said to pick up a decade after the events of the previous film. Actor Maika Monroe is returning for the follow-up, along with returning director-writer David Robert Mitchell.
Disasterpiece is also confirmed to be crafting the sequel’s score.
Starring in the new sequel are Naomi Ackie (Blink Twice), Jackie Earle Haley (Little Children, A Nightmare on Elm Street), Justine Lupe (Succession), Anna Mirodin (Ivan), Jayne Taini (Unbelievable), Michael Gandolfini (Daredevil: Born Again), Tom Pecinka (Stereophonic), Melora Walters (Magnolia), Ben Krieger (Song Sung Blue), Natalie Shinnick (The Brutalist), and Jan Hoag (The Fabelmans).
In the first movie, Maika Monroe’s Jay Height is a young woman followed by an unknown supernatural force after a sexual encounter. In the sequel, the threat spreads everywhere.
“It’s very dark,” Monroe recently teased. “We’re pushing the boundaries on this one for sure.”
“It’s very different from the original,” Monroe told Discussing Film. “The original is a little more heightened and dramatic, and this is really quite grounded and follows the story of these two women that are mentally dealing with a lot. I thought it was really an interesting take on it.”
Monroe also stars in the upcoming horror-comedy Victorian Psycho, while this summer saw the release of Mitchell’s big-budget dinosaur spectacle The End of Oak Street.
They Follow has yet to announce a release date, so stay tuned.
