Though the specifics of Joe Hill’s ideas for The Black Phone sequel remain under wraps, the existing story opens the door to several eerie possibilities. If the Grabber’s victims can call from the afterlife and impact the real world, a sequel might see him haunting his own way—possibly even more terrifyingly. Another direction could explore the dark origins of the Grabber himself, revealing what turned him into a sinister figure. Whatever path the sequel takes, audiences can expect a chilling, captivating continuation in The Black Phone 2.
Directed by Scott Derrickson and written by Derrickson and C. Robert Cargill, the film is produced alongside Jason Blum. Original cast members Mason Thames, Madeleine McGraw, Jeremy Davies, and Ethan Hawke will reprise their roles in this spine-chilling return.
