Jessica Rothe discussed in an interview with Collider not long ago some of director Christopher B. Landon’s ideas for Happy Death Day 2, which she compared to Back to the Future, but in the context of a genre movie.
Here’s what she had to say about it.
“The sequel, the way he described it to me, elevates the movie from being a horror movie, and I wouldn’t even say it’s just a horror movie because it’s a horror, comedy, rom-com drama, into a Back to the Future type of genre film where the sequel joins us right from where we left off, it explains a lot of things in the first one that didn’t get explained, and it elevates everything. I was really pleased to know that we weren’t just gonna be pushing all the buttons that people loved the first time, over and over again, ’cause I think that gets old. I’m really excited to see if it comes to fruition and, if it does, what the final product looks like. I hope we get to do it! I had a ball!”
Happy Death Day literally killed at the box office, grossing $122.6 million worldwide, working from a budget of just $4.8 million. This time around we can expect bigger and better.
