Nearly 10 years after hammering home the horrors of sex, David Robert Mitchell and Maika Monroe will team up again for They Follow, a sequel to their beloved 2015 film It Follows.
Like the original, Mitchell will write and produce They Follow, while Monroe will reprise her role as Jay Height, the final girl at the center of the STD allegory. Mitchell produces with Jake Weiner and Chris Bender of Good Fear Content, as well as original It Follows producers David Kaplan, Erik Rommesmo, Rebecca Green, and Laura Smith.
Production for the long-awaited sequel will begin next year. The film arrives via Neon, the production company home to such films as I, Tonya, Parasite, Portrait of a Lady on Fire, and Spencer. On the horror front, the company last issued projects like Brandon Cronenberg’s Infinity Pool and Bishal Dutta’s It Lives Inside.
