Universal Studios and Blumhouse have reportedly announced that a sequel to The Black Phone will be arriving in theaters on June 27, 2025. After the original film released in 2022 turned out to be a success at the box office, it was clear that the studio will be making a franchise out of it. 

It's currently unclear if any cast members from the previous entry will return, or if the production company will cast new faces for the upcoming sequel. In the first film Ethan Hawke played the role of The Grabber, a criminal responsible for kidnapping several children with the cruel methods he's mastered over time. 

The film was directed by Scott Derrickson, with the Doctor Strange filmmaker using his keen eye for horror that earned him praise for his work in Sinister. The studio didn't confirm if the director would come back to work on the sequel.

The Black Phone 2 will be a part of Blumhouse's plan to give the best value to their properties, alongside 2025's M3GAN 2.0 and The Exorcist: Deceiver.
