The sequel to Ready or Not is underway, with Samara Weaving set to reprise her role from the original. She will be reuniting with the filmmaking trio, Matt Bettinelli-Olpin, Tyler Gillett, and Chad Villella, popularly referred to as Radio Silence. Searchlight Pictures is developing a sequel to the 2019 horror-comedy film. 

The sequel announcement was made during a special screening of Ready or Not at Hollywood's iconic El Capitan Theatre, where Samara Weaving and the filmmakers took part in a post-screening Q&A session.

In Ready or Not, Samara Weaving's character, a bride, uncovers her new family's sinister wedding night ritual, where she must play a deadly game of hide and seek to survive as her in-laws relentlessly pursue her to fulfil an ancient pact. Guy Busick and R Christopher Murphy wrote the film, which garnered widespread critical acclaim. 

The film's success, fuelled by Weaving's standout performance, catapulted her career and solidified Radio Silence's reputation as leaders in the horror genre. The directing trio has since tackled high-profile projects, including rebooting the iconic Scream franchise with Scream V (2022) and Scream VI (2023).

Ready or Not 2 will see the return of producers Tripp Vinson, Bradley J Fischer, William Sherak, and James Vanderbilt as well. Plot details for the sequel are yet to be revealed. With Radio Silence set to helm, Busick and Murphy will return to write the screenplay.
