While promoting his latest film, M. Night Shyamalan's Knock at the Cabin, Dave Bautista has revealed that the next film on his list is the My Spy sequel.

A follow-up to the film was being explored back in 2020 by Amazon and STX with Bautista set to return alongside his co-star Chloe Coleman, director Paul Segal, and writers Eric and John Hoeber. 

The original My Spy followed JJ, a CIA operative monitoring the in-laws of a dangerous illegal arms dealer who may be in possession of plans for a miniature nuclear weapon. During the mission, however, he ends up the pawn of the family's 9-year-old daughter who blackmails him into teaching her tricks of the spy trade and spending time with her. The film ended on a lighthearted note with JJ now moving in with Sophie and her mother Kate in Chicago after being re-instated with the CIA.

After this film the actor grown in stature  and did films like Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, Army of the Dead, and Dune among other things.

The original film also starred Kristen Schaal, Parisa Fitz-Henley, Ken Jeong, Devere Rogers, Greg Bryk, Ali Hassan, and Noah Danby.

With production beginning in late February, My Spy 2 could potentially see a release in early 2024.
