— Our “mythology bible” is so thick that we would jump at the opportunity to make a sequel for A24 right away, said Danny Philippou when TT interviewed him earlier in the summer.
Now the sequel seems to be a reality, after “Talk to me” became a success for the indie company A24 – their most profitable after “Hereditary” – and the twin directors Philippou have received the green light to make a sequel, reports among others NME.
“Talk to me” is a sort of “Exorcist” for the social media era and is about a severed hand that can open a gate to the spirit world. Party-hungry kids line up to let ghosts into their bodies, but their viral moment soon takes a darker turn when repressed trauma seeps into the game. Be careful: if the spirit stays in the body for too long, it can stay permanently.
