M3GAN 2.0 has a new look. The sequel to 2022's sci-fi horror takes a swing in a new direction, with the now-defunct violent, self-aware AI doll being brought back into action with the hopes of taking down a new, hostile robot built using the same technology. This has already drawn comparisons to action flick Terminator, but the movie's director Gerard Johnstone says it has the same "horror DNA" as the original film.
"Are we completely abandoning why people like M3GAN in the first place? No," Johnstone says in the new issue of SFX magazine, which features M3GAN 2.0 on the cover and hits newsstands on Wednesday, May 21.
