Following the commercial success of Leigh Whannell’s ‘The Invisible Man’, a sequel, ‘The Invisible Man 2,’ is now under wraps. During a Happy Sad Confused podcast, the film’s star, Elisabeth Moss, confirmed the development of the sequel.
Overcoming Pandemic Challenges for Cinematic Success
Despite its release just two weeks before the world was hit by the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020, The Invisible Man garnered over $144 million at the global box office. The impressive performance was noteworthy, as the production was done on a meager budget of only $7 million.
Whannell’s ‘The Invisible Man’ is a modern rendition of Universal’s classic monster character. The story revolves around Cecilia Kass (Elisabeth Moss) who, after the demise of her abusive ex-boyfriend (Oliver Jackson-Cohen), suspects he might not be dead after all.
Progress with The Invisible Man sequel
When asked about a potential sequel during the podcast, Moss said: “We are, I would say – and by ‘we,’ I mean Blumhouse and my production company Love & Squalor Pictures – closer than we have ever been to cracking it. And I feel very good about it. We very much intend on continuing that story for sure.“
The news comes amidst Whannell and Blumhouse Productions’ current venture: rebooting another classic Universal Monsters property, Wolf Man.
Sadly, Moss isn’t involved in the Wolf Man project. She added, “I wish… I would love that. I think that’s the idea for Universal in the future if Wolf Man goes well – to revive that universe. But no, unfortunately, I have not been asked to be in Wolf Man […] but if we can get this sequel happening then maybe we can get a universe started.“
A Hope for Crossover Between The Invisible Man and Wolf Man
Elisabeth Moss seems not only open to the idea of ‘The Invisible Man 2’ but also excited at the possibility of an ‘Invisible Man/Wolf Man’ crossover.
Her intentions align with those of many fans who enjoyed the classic Invisible Man franchise. With this nostalgia and the previous film’s commercial success, ‘The Invisible Man 2’ carries high expectations.
