Writer and director David Robert Mitchell and actress Maika Monroe are teaming up for a sequel to the 2014 horror film Continued. The sequel is titled They Follow and the film will begin shooting in 2024.
Monroe will reprise her lead role as Jay Height from the first film, which ended up building a decent-sized cult following. The film revolves around a young woman named Jay who, after a seemingly innocent sexual encounter, finds herself tormented by terrifying visions and the inescapable feeling that someone, or something, is following her.
This malevolent entity, which can appear as a friend, stranger or loved one, relentlessly stalks its victim and can only be seen by those it is chasing. The curse is passed on through sexual encounters, and the only way to get rid of it is to pass it on to another person.
The story sees Jay and her friends try to understand and escape this entity, but it subjects them to a terrifying test. The film was praised for its atmospheric tension and innovative concept.
There’s no information on how the sequel will continue that story, but it will be interesting to see what they come up with. Hopefully it doesn’t just retell the same story that’s been told, but offers something fresh and unique.
Did you like the first film and are excited to learn that a sequel is in development?
