Filming for the anticipated sequel began in October 2022. Writer and producer James Wan confirmed that production for the follow up movie was taking place in France, in keeping with the film's plot.

Set four years after the original, The Nun 2 sees Sister Irene attempt to uncover the truth behind a priest's murder in France, as she faces a demon called Valak.

American Horror Story star Taissa Farmiga, who starred in the 2018 original, is returning as Sister Irene, where she is called to investigate a new case.

Bonnie Aarons is also back as Valak (aka the Nun). New cast additions for The Nun 2 include Euphoria and The Suicide Squad star Storm Reid. Her appointment was announced in September 2022, though no further details have been shared of her character or role in the sequel.

Michael Chaves will direct The Nun 2, who himself is no stranger to The Conjuring Universe. He also directed 2021's The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It, so the sequel is very much in safe hands.

The Nun was released as a prequel to The Conjuring 2 back in 2018. It follows the story of Roman Catholic priest Father Burke (Demián Bichir) and nun in training Sister Irene (Farmiga) as they investigate an unholy incident in 1950s Romania. Though they soon find themselves in danger from the demonic entity Valak, who is manifesting as a nun.

Critics weren't bowled over by the film at the time, with reviews for The Nun less positive than the response to 2013's The Conjuring. The film has a Rotten Tomatoes score of 25%, with an audience rating of 35%.

The Nun 2 will be released in cinemas on September 8, 2023
