Smile 2 is coming to try and rule the fall box office, as the follow-up to the surprise smash first film released a new trailer and poster. The sequel stars Naomi Scott, Rosemarie DeWitt, Lukas Gage, Miles Gutierrez-Riley, Peter Jacobson, Ray Nicholson, Dylan Gelula, Raúl Castillo, and Kyle Gallner and is once again written and directed by Parker Finn. The first film came out of nowhere and made $217 million worldwide, which is not bad for a movie that was originally destined to just be a Paramount+ original. This one looks bigger and meaner all around. Paramount is counting on Smile 2 to be huge, as they desperately need their franchises to keep hitting big, the few that they have.

PRODUCED BY Marty Bowen, Wyck Godfrey, Isaac Klausner, Parker Finn, Robert Salerno. WRITTEN & DIRECTED BY Parker Finn.
I am a massive Naomi Scott fan and am excited about Smile 2 for her alone. Many of my horror friends and I thought the first movie was a letdown, especially on a second viewing, and rolled their eyes when the sequel was announced. This is the way for horror now, and I can't even say I blame Paramount for greenlighting a sequel, as the premise lends itself to be endless. This trailer went a long way to selling myself that this could take what I did not enjoy about Smile and enhance the experience. Having Scott front and center will help.
Smile 2 will open in theaters on October 18th and is one of the most anticipated horror films of 2024.
