Everyone's favorite tiny tech terror M3GAN is officially seeing her universe expanded with an upcoming spin-off named SOULM8TE set for a January 2026 release.
Kate Dolan (YOU ARE NOT MY MOTHER) will direct the "erotic thriller", hitting theaters in January 2026.
I was pleasantly surprised with M3GAN, so I'm looking forward to this. It's got a different writer/director whose work I'm not familiar with, but looking at her IMDB it seems like a good fit for her.
Yeah. I used to watch a lot of horror/thrillers and most left me underwhelmed. As such, I had low expectations for M3GAN but it left me pleasantly surprised. Definitely campy, but that's obviously what it was going for.
Now I'm thinking I might have to watch it again this weekend.
I think the hardest I laughed in a theater that year was when the in movie commercial says "imagine what it can do for kids whose parents aren't dead!"
I don't know if they can thread the needle again but I'll give the sequel a shot
The real question is, when the robot goes crazy, will the protagonist die, freak out but escape in the end, over out of terror, or be a supportive accomplice? The last one would be the most interesting and unique spin on it, I think.
