The Guest 2

"I can give you a very concrete answer to that question, which is, we are doing something related to The Guest," Barrett confirmed with ComicBook.com. "And it is concretely happening, but it is not a feature film or a comic book, because I think that's what people would expect us to do. And I think that's the thing that no one actually wants us to do, because I think if we actually made a feature film version of The Guest 2, or realistically, the graphic novel version would just be a cheaper version of trying to achieve kind of the same thing narratively. I think that could only disappoint people at this juncture, because people have to remember that the same weird, quasi-original artistic sensibility that caused me to write The Guest in the first place would continue to guide me with a Guest sequel."

He continued, "So I would likely do something perverse, and just have Dan's character be the successful owner of a local hardware store and the entire story is just about him dealing with a difficult supplier, but in a totally legal and healthy way, because he's totally grown as a person. And so, in a sense, I think Seance was trying to be the slightly more optimistic version of the same narrative that You're Next and The Guest somewhat explored with their characters. So, we're never going to do just like, The Guest 2. Because I just don't think... The Guest was just never meant to have a sequel like that. However, at this point, enough people have asked us about it, that of course, inevitably Adam and I have had enough conversations about what we would hypothetically do, that we've now developed a bunch of ideas that we've become very attached to, because we think they're actually good."

I have no idea what the **** they're talking about but a sequel is in the works so cool I guess.

I can get on board with a sequel. The first one is a movie I went in with zero expectations and loved how it segwayed from a standard thriller into some mad 80s pastiche

I hope the plot is that he becomes a house guest again.

No, he's supposed to be a good guy and the sequel is going to be "completely different" then the original.

Dunno then, man. Him being a psychopathic dick in the first film is what made it good. You weren't expecting that.

👆 Also true!

I loved the first film

Him being the “good guy” in the sequel seems like a bad idea

I'm basing that completely off what was said here:

"just have Dan's character be the successful owner of a local hardware store and the entire story is just about him dealing with a difficult supplier, but in a totally legal and healthy way, because he's totally grown as a person."

Re: The Guest 2

The Guest was one of my favorite movies in recent years, so I'm looking forward to that.
