M3GAN 2.0 is a Go, People

If you’ve been holding your breath waiting for M3GAN 2.0, you’re probably on life support by now. The release of our favorite film about the killer-robot-doll-bestie has been delayed multiple times. But it looks like we’re finally closing in on the next adventure of America’s favorite A.I.. The iconic and bionic M3GAN stole my heart, your heart, and very likely the life of Esquire’s entertainment editor. And now, it’s official: M3GAN is definitely coming back for us on June 27. At least in sequel form. James Wan’s Atomic Monster and Jason Blum’s Blumhouse production companies will be teaming up again to bring us a bigger and better M3GAN—if that’s even possible.

In a newly dropped teaser for the film (streaming above), M3GAN is busting more fantastic moves to the soundtrack of Grammy award-winning Chappell Roan‘s “Femininomenon.” M3GAN shows off some of her classic dance routine—the aerial cartwheel, the arm twists, the body rolls. And she finally greets us for the first time in what feels like forever by asking, “Miss me?” And boy, I really did!

To add more besties to this reunion, stars Allison Williams and Violet McGraw will reprise their roles. We can’t wait to catch up with the aunt and niece duo. According to plot details released by Universal, Cady has now become an angsty and rebellious teenager, while Gemma rages a war against the misuse of A.I.. And unbeknownst to them, the tech that Gemma created for M3GAN has been stolen to create an ultimate war machine. Looks like the film will once again tackle the alarmingly realistic concerns about the uncontrolled use of A.I. with sharp wit and antics.

Will Cady become a crime fighting duo with M3GAN? Will Aunt Gemma finally meet up with her Tinder matches? Will a new and improved M3GAN destroy her enemies with a dance battle?! Well, until the technology develops enough for me to get my own M3GAN, I’ll just have to wait patiently for M3GAN 2.0. But there’s nothing stopping me from wildly speculating the doll’s future until we get a sneak peek of what’s next for M3g.

M3GAN v. ANNABELLE

M3GAN is a James Wan-produced horror creation. If his name sounds familiar to you, maybe that’s because you’ve heard of Annabelle, the 2014 killer-haunted-doll film spinoff from The Conjuring series. It’s very possible that two could face off someday. (Hell, M3GAN‘s director even addressed the crossover idea.) Perhaps M3GAN makes friends with a girl who shares a house with Annabelle? Obviously, the battle between the two killer girl bosses would be nasty—and no holds barred. I’d love to see M3GAN use her motion-sensing system on Annabelle’s ghostly ass. There would be no room for otherworldly jump scares with M3GAN’s all-knowing AI! Annabelle’s centuries-old, raggedy doll body doesn’t stand a chance.
