Fans of the creepy 2012 film SINISTER will be pleased to hear that it’s sequel aptly named SINISTER 2 is well on the way to being made. As filming began in Chicago, we can announce that A KNIGHTS TALE star Shannyn Sossamon will lead the film with James Ransone returning as the bumbling Deputy.
The official synopsis states that the film will begin after events of the first and will star Sossamon as a protective mother of twin boys who find themselves in a rural house marked for death. Original director Scott Derrickson will be handing over the reigns to CITADEL director Ciaran Foy, though Derrickson has teamed up with SINISTER writer C. Robert Cargill to pen the script.
So fans can be assured that the creepy atmosphere will be ever visible in SINISTER 2. The ‘home movies’ were a high point from the first film. You have to wonder if they will go the same route or show us something even more sinister.
SINISTER 2 is set to be released by Focus Features on the 21st August 2015.
