The murderous doll who captivated pop culture in 2023 is back. And this time she’s not alone.
The original creative team behind that phenomenon—led by horror titans James Wan for Atomic Monster, Jason Blum for Blumhouse and director Gerard Johnstone—reboot an all-new wild chapter in A.I. mayhem with M3GAN 2.0.
Two years after M3GAN, a marvel of artificial intelligence, went rogue and embarked on a murderous (and impeccably choreographed) rampage and was subsequently destroyed, M3GAN’s creator Gemma (Allison Williams) has become a high-profile author and advocate for government oversight of A.I. Meanwhile, Gemma’s niece Cady (Violet McGraw), now 14, has become a teenager, rebelling against Gemma’s overprotective rules.
Unbeknownst to them, the underlying tech for M3GAN has been stolen and misused by a powerful defense contractor to create a military-grade weapon known as Amelia (Ivanna Sakhno; Ahsoka, Pacific Rim: Uprising), the ultimate killer infiltration spy. But as Amelia’s self-awareness increases, she becomes decidedly less interested in taking orders from humans. Or in keeping them around.
With the future of human existence on the line, Gemma realizes that the only option is to resurrect M3GAN (Amie Donald, voiced by Jenna Davis) and give her a few upgrades, making her faster, stronger, and more lethal. As their paths collide, the original A.I bitch is about to meet her match.
Directed by acclaimed returning filmmaker Gerard Johnstone, the film co-stars returning cast members Brian Jordan Alvarez and Jen Van Epps as Gemma’s loyal tech teammates, Cole and Tess, and new characters played by Aristotle Athari (Saturday Night Live, Hacks), Timm Sharp (Apples Never Fall, Percy Jackson and the Olympians) and Grammy winner and 11-time Emmy nominee Jemaine Clement (Avatar: The Way of Water, What We Do in the Shadows).
Produced by James Wan, Jason Blum and Allison Williams, the film is executive produced by Gerard Johnstone, Adam Hendricks, Greg Gilreath, Michael Clear, Judson Scott and Mark D. Katchur.
The first M3GAN film shattered box office records, opening to $30.4 million domestically to become the biggest opening weekend for a PG-13 horror film since

Short filmTranscript
00:00I'll admit, there were some bugs in my programming.
00:12It's hardly fair to blame me for that.
00:19But one thing hasn't changed.
00:25I will do whatever it takes to protect Katie.
00:30What the hell is this?
00:32You put me in this plastic tumble-dubby?
00:34Prove you can be trusted, maybe we'll give you an upgrade.
00:40Mrs. Forrester, we have a problem.
00:42We're hunting an autonomous android named Amelia.
00:44She was built using your design for Megan.
00:48How is this possible?
00:49You deleted it.
00:50Apparently you didn't.
00:53Nothing in our arsenal can stop her.
00:56She's gone rogue.
00:59Killing anyone who's contributed to her creation.
01:04And you and Katie are next.
01:08I know how to stop Amelia.
01:11She's getting more powerful.
01:13Soon she'll be the most dangerous weapon on the planet.
01:17Put me in a body and I'll help you stop her.
01:19You remember what happened last time.
01:21You threatened to rip out my tongue and put me in a wheelchair.
01:25I was upset.
01:27Look, she wants to help us.
01:29Everyone deserves a second chance.
01:31You would like us to rebuild a deranged robot in order to catch another one.
01:35Would you prefer I gave you a printout that you can read at your own pace?
01:40Okay, Megan, time to give you an upgrade.
01:42Anything you'd like to add?
01:44I want to be stronger, faster.
01:50So remember the time I strangled you and set the lab on fire?
01:53I want you to know that won't happen again.
01:58Thank you so much.
01:59And while you're at it, make me taller.
02:05All right, meat sacks, let's get to work.
02:09Now look who came out to play.
02:12I was programmed to protect Katie.
02:14The only question is, are you going to stand in my way?
02:22Hold on to your vaginas.
02:24I don't care if she did kill four people.
02:26She is a smoking hot warrior princess.
02:35I'll make you a deal.
02:36You can kill Gemma, but don't touch Katie.
02:38Megan.
