The murderous doll who captivated pop culture in 2023 is back. And this time she’s not alone. Watch the action-packed final trailer for this summer’s sequel M3GAN 2.0 down below.
M3GAN 2.0 slays into theaters on June 27 from Universal, and M3GAN is the hero of the story this time around. She’ll be battling a new threat built with her own tech named Amelia, and the final trailer for the horror sequel makes it clear that we’re getting a much different experience this time around. M3GAN 2.0 aims to be the Terminator 2 to M3GAN‘s Terminator.
Director Gerard Johnstone and writer Akela Cooper are back for the follow-up to their 2023 film along with producers James Wan of Atomic Monster and Jason Blum of Blumhouse.
Allison Williams, Violet McGraw, Brian Jordan Alvarez, Jen Van Epps, Amie Donald, and Jenna Davis star alongside Ivanna Sakhno, Aristotle Athari, Timm Sharp, and Jemaine Clement.
Here’s the official synopsis:
Two years after M3GAN, a marvel of artificial intelligence, went rogue and embarked on a murderous rampage and was subsequently destroyed, M3GAN’s creator Gemma has become a high-profile author and advocate for government oversight of A.I. Meanwhile, Gemma’s niece Cady, now 14, has become a teenager, rebelling against Gemma’s overprotective rules.
Unbeknownst to them, the underlying tech for M3GAN has been stolen and misused by a powerful defense contractor to create a military-grade weapon known as Amelia, the ultimate killer infiltration spy. But as Amelia’s self-awareness increases, she becomes decidedly less interested in taking orders from humans. Or in keeping them around…
With the future of human existence on the line, Gemma realizes that the only option is to resurrect M3GAN and give her a few upgrades, making her faster, stronger, and more lethal. As their paths collide, the original A.I bitch is about to meet her match.
