Melissa Barrera Talks Ready or Not 2
Melissa Barrera has said in an interview with ComicBook.com that she knows some stuff about Ready or Not 2 and it's really good, after being asked about whether she had been contacted about the possibility of joining the sequel.
The last that I spoke with them about Ready or Not, they weren’t going to direct it. So I’m so happy that they’re back on board because, who better to do it than them? It’s a very exciting story. I know some about what the second movie is about and it’s really good.
Perhaps we will get to see her in the film? Rumors are already flying around.

Kathryn Newton has joined the cast of Ready or Not 2 in a mystery role, and this will be her second time working with the directors, Radio Silence, after playing a Sammy in their 2024 vampire comedy Abigail.

It appears that a beloved horror movie from the past decade may be receiving a sequel.
The talented team at Radio Silence, consisting of Directors Tyler Gillett and Matt Bettinelli-Olpin, along with Producer Chad Villella, have disclosed that they have been diligently working on a follow-up to Ready or Not since 2019.
Speaking to EW, Gillet had this to say.
“It’s getting figured out, That’s what we’ll say: Ready or Not 2 is getting figured out. What we can say is that there is a script that is an absolute f—ing banger of a sequel. And however it gets made, and in whatever capacity we are helping get it made, we are so excited that it’s happening. That movie is truly the love of our creative lives in a lot of ways.”
Ready or Not, released in 2019, featured an all-star cast including Samara Weaving, Adam Brody, Mark O'Brien, Elyse Levesque, Nicky Guadagni, Henry Czerny, and Andie MacDowell.
The movie grossed $57.6 million on a $6 million budget and followed a young bride as she participates in a time-honored tradition with her new husband's wealthy, eccentric family, which quickly turns into a deadly game where everyone fights for their survival.
