M3GAN 2.0 – Teaser Trailer (2025) Universal Pictures

M3GAN 2.0 seemed like a sure thing after the success of the first film, and now updates are pouring in about the anticipated horror sequel. The film, directed by Gerard Johnstone, follows an artificially intelligent doll who becomes self-aware and acts hostile toward anyone who threatens her. With an eye towards contemporary issues, M3GAN brought the right amount of tongue-in-cheek humor to compliment its genuinely creepy premise.

M3GAN received high praise from critics, and it became a phenomenal hit, with many clips going viral on TikTok. The movie made $176 million worldwide (via Box Office Mojo), which is even more impressive given its low budget of $12 million. Not only was the film a hit, but the character of M3GAN has the opportunity to blossom into the next great horror icon. The box office success of M3GAN all but confirmed a sequel would happen, and now it's official, as M3GAN 2.0 updates have revealed returning characters, the sequel's title, and a release date.
