Get ready to duck and cover, horror fans! Searchlight Pictures has officially announced a release date for the highly anticipated sequel to the 2019 cult classic, *Ready or Not*. *Ready or Not 2: Here I Come* will be hitting theaters on April 10th, 2026. The news broke via social media, sending a wave of excitement (and probably a few shrieks) through the horror community.
The original *Ready or Not*, starring Samara Weaving as a bride facing a deadly family tradition, was a critical and commercial success, lauded for its inventive premise, sharp humor, and genuinely terrifying moments. Fans have been eagerly awaiting news of a sequel since the first film’s release, and this announcement finally gives them something concrete to look forward to. While plot details remain tightly under wraps, the long wait suggests a potentially ambitious and complex storyline is in the works.
The nearly three-year gap between the announcement and the release date hints at a production process that’s prioritizing quality over speed. This could mean a carefully crafted script, extensive pre-production, and potentially some impressive special effects. Given the darkly comedic tone and inventive kills of the first film, expectations are high for the sequel to deliver another thrilling and darkly funny ride.
April 10th, 2026 might seem a long way off, but for fans of *Ready or Not*, the wait will undoubtedly be worth it. Mark your calendars and prepare for another night of terrifying family fun. The game is far from over.
