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 k
nown 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 A Quiet Place Part II. The film went on to gross more than $180 million worldwide.

Short filmTranscript
00:00I'll admit, there were some bugs in my programming.
00:10It's hardly fair to blame me for that.
00:18But one thing hasn't changed.
00:24I will do whatever it takes to protect Katie.
00:29What the hell is this? You put me in this plastic towel tubby?
00:33Prove you can be trusted, maybe we'll give you an upgrade.
00:39Mrs. Forrester, we have a problem. We're hunting an autonomous android named Amelia.
00:43She was built using your design for Megan.
00:47How's this possible? You deleted it.
00:49Apparently you didn't.
00:52Nothing in our arsenal can stop her.
00:55She's gone rogue.
00:58I'm killing anyone who's contributed to her creation.
01:03And you and Katie are next.
01:07I know how to stop Amelia.
01:10She's getting more powerful. Soon she'll be the most dangerous weapon on the planet.
01:16Put me in a body and I'll help you stop her.
01:18You remember what happened last time.
01:20You threatened to rip out my tongue and put me in a wheelchair.
01:24I was upset.
01:26Look, she wants to help us.
01:28Everyone deserves a second chance.
01:30You would like us to rebuild a deranged robot in order to catch another one.
01:34Would you prefer I gave you a printout that you can read at your own pace?
01:39Okay, Megan, time to give you an upgrade. Anything you'd like to add?
01:43I want to be stronger, faster.
01:49Hey, so remember the time I strangled you and set the lab on fire? I want you to know.
01:55It won't happen again.
01:57Thank you so much.
01:59And while you're at it, make me taller.
02:04All right, meat sacks, let's get to work.
02:09Now look who came out to play.
02:12I was programmed to protect Katie. The only question is, are you going to stand in my way?
02:21Hold on to your vaginas.
02:23I don't care if she did kill four people. She is a smoking hot warrior princess.
02:34I'll make you a deal. You can kill Gemma, but don't touch Katie.
02:37Megan.
