“M3GAN 2.0” Teaser Dances to Chappell Roan

This bitch, is back!

At least, that is what Universal and Blumhouse are claiming, as the studio has just released a new teaser trailer for the highly anticipated sequel, M3GAN 2.0.

It's been two years since M3GAN, a marvel in artificial intelligence, went against their human's command, embarking on a murderous rampage with a line of bodies lying in her wake.  Though her moves were highly stylized (and flawlessly choreographed), her creator, Gemma, was forced to destroy her.  But now, as Gemma advocates government oversight of A.I., the technology has migrated hands and was used to develop a new doll.  Amelia is a premium killer spy who, just recently, has also begun to ignore the commands of her human.

Though the new teaser doesn't offer anything regarding actual footage, fans of the original will recognize the iconic "Megan dance" on display as the doll moves to Chappell Roan's "Femininomenon." The short teaser then ends with us looking face to face at Amelia, the newest doll hell-bent on exterminating every human she comes into contact with.

Allison Williams and Violet McGraw return for the new outing.  Also coming back is the entire creative team, led by director Gerard Johnstone and horror-producing titans James Wan for Atomic Monster and Jason Blum for Blumhouse.

M3GAN 2.0 is a follow-up to the hugely successful 2023 original.  That film, appropriately titled M3GAN, grossed over $181 million worldwide against a budget of $12 million.  M3GAN 2.0 was quickly greenlit with a spin-off, SOULM8TE, planned for next year.

MEGAN 2.0 will slay its way into theaters on June 27.

About Stephen Davis

I owe this hobby/career to the one and only Stephanie Peterman who, while interning at Fox, told me that I had too many opinions and irrelevant information to keep it all bottled up inside. I survived my first rated R film, Alive, at the ripe age of 8, it took me months to grasp the fact that Julia Roberts actually died at the end of Steel Magnolias, and I might be the only person alive who actually enjoyed Sorority Row…for its comedic value of course. While my friends can drink you under the table, I can outwatch you when it comes iconic, yet horrid 80s films like Adventures in Babysitting and Troop Beverly Hills. I have no shame when it comes to what I like, and if you have a problem with that, then we’ll settle it on the racquetball court. I see too many movies to actually win any film trivia contest, so don’t waste your first pick on me. My friends rent movies from my bookcase shelves, and one day I do plan to start charging. I long to live in LA, where my movie obsession will actually help me fit in, but for now I am content with my home in Austin. I prefer indies to blockbusters, Longhorns to Sooners and Halloween to Friday the 13th. I miss the classics, as well as John Ritter, and I hope to one day sit down and interview the amazing Kate Winslet.
