20 Upcoming Movie Sequels That Could Be HUGE Improvements

1. Fall 2

2022's Fall was a tightly wound vertiginous thriller about two women who get stranded at the top of a 2000-foot TV tower, and though it wore its low budget on its sleeve, it was honestly pretty good considering those obvious constraints.

Its surprise success both theatrically and on streaming ensured that not one but two sequels were swiftly announced.

It was recently confirmed that Fall 2 will be a standalone sequel focused on another duo of young climbers who end up trapped in an improbably perilous situation, and honestly, this one sounds a lot better.

This time around, the climbers encounter a rockslide while doing Thailand's famous plank walk of Mount Kwan, leaving them stranded 3,000 feet in the air on a rickety hunk of wood.

That just sounds like a far scarier and more visually interesting scenario than the TV tower of the first film, while also being a tad less ridiculous considering how much the original film inherently strained credibility.

It's all down to the execution of course, but with the more experienced Spierig Brothers (Daybreakers, Predestination) directing in favour of original filmmaker Scott Mann, there's a good chance it's an even more gut-wrenchingly tense outing.
