20 Most Anticipated Horror Movies Of 2025

After becoming a viral sensation on TikTok and bagging $181 million on a $12 million budget, M3GAN has been set up as the next big franchise.

Although most horror sequels churn out more of the same, M3GAN 2.0 shouldn't have that problem since it explores an ever-evolving theme: AI. 

Artificial intelligence has made major strides since M3GAN came out in 2022, in terms of military applications, Chat GPT, and replacing human beings in their jobs. While speaking to 1news, returning director Gerard Johnstone discussed how robots and computers have noticeably become smarter in the past year, giving him tons of ideas for the future.

Also, the original ended with M3GAN transferring her essence to another machine, implying the spaghetti-armed android will have a whole new approach when she goes on her next killing spree. Although Johnstone joked he could picture the killer doll returning in five or six follow-ups before doing a crossover with Chucky, that could well be a very real possibility, considering how popular M3GAN is.
