A sequel to “Jennifer’s Body” is in the works, at least according to Amanda Seyfried.

“I think we’re making another,” Seyfried told a fan at a Toronto screening of her new thriller “Seven Veils.” “I did not confirm it! I said, ‘I think’ … We’re working on it!”

The actress then winked at the delighted fan. The moment was captured in a TikTok video, which you can watch below.

Seyfried starred in the 2009 horror-comedy as Anita “Needy” Lesnicki, the nerdy friend of Jennifer (Megan Fox) who becomes possessed by a demon and starts chowing down on her male admirers at their high school. The onus is then on Needy to save the day and the lives of her classmates. The movie was directed by Karyn Kusama and has become a cult classic in the years since its release.

When the movie first came out, however, it was universally panned by critics.

More than 15 years later, Jennifer Check is ready for a resurrection.

Although Amanda Seyfried stopped short of confirming a sequel to her 2009 horror comedy Jennifer’s Body is in the works, she certainly gave fans of the Diablo Cody-written, Karyn Kusama-directed cult classic some hope.

“I think we’re making another one,” Seyfried told Bloody Disgusting. “I didn’t confirm it! I said, ‘I think.’ We’re working on it.”

In Jennifer’s Body, Needy (Seyfried) is BFFs with the titular mean girl played by Megan Fox, whose body becomes possessed by a succubus with a taste for teen boys after a botched sacrifice by a devil-worshipping boy band (led by Adam Brody).

Last year, Cody expressed optimism in a potential Jennifer’s Body 2 after hopes that her latest film Lisa Frankenstein would be the “final push that I need to actually make it happen. It’s hard to get things made these days.

It looks like Jennifer’s Body might finally be getting a sequel! Amanda Seyfried, who starred in the 2009 horror-comedy alongside Megan Fox, recently teased that a follow-up is in the works.

At a Toronto screening of her film Seven Veils, Seyfried responded to a fan’s question about a possible sequel. “I think we’re making another one,” she said in a TikTok clip. She quickly added, “I didn’t confirm it! I said, ‘I think’,” before winking and saying, “We’re working on it!”

The original film, written by Diablo Cody and directed by Karyn Kusama, was not a big success when it was first released. However, over the years, it has gained a cult following, with many now seeing it as an underrated classic.

Cody has expressed interest in making a sequel last year,...

Maligned as a critical and commercial failure upon its release in 2009, Jennifer’s Body has since been reappraised as a misunderstood cult classic. In the wake of the newfound appreciation, rumors of a sequel have surfaced.

Amanda Seyfried, who starred alongside Megan Fox, teased the follow-up at a recent Toronto screening of her film Seven Veils.

“I think we’re making another one,” Seyfried tells a fan in the TikTok clip below. “I didn’t confirm it! I said, ‘I think’,” she winks. “We’re working on it!”

Writer Diablo Cody told Bloody Disgusting last year that she wants to make a sequel. “I am not done with Jennifer’s Body… I need to partner with people who believe it in as much as I do and that hasn’t really happened yet. I need someone to believe in it who has a billion dollars.”

One of the standout memories from my last semester of college was hearing the strong word-of-mouth around the breakout from that year’s Sundance Film Festival, “Whiplash.” I can remember the excitement around a new, potentially generational filmmaker bursting onto the scene, as well as an intense, young actor starting to make his mark in films like “Rabbit Hole,” “The Spectacular Now,” and now this. Moreover, having just binged the HBO prison drama “Oz,” I was thrilled by the possibility of one its ensemble cast members, J.K. Simmons, taking on a role that required him to lean on his more sociopathic abilities.

The first time I saw the film, winner of both the Audience Award and the Grand Jury Prize, it was followed by a Q&a with Simmons in which he spoke on the animalistic nature of his character, jazz instructor Terence Fletcher, and how, despite Damien Chazelle’s youthful appearance,...

Preparations for the biggest film of 2022 were grueling for the entire cast. With strict training imposed by Tom Cruise, Miles Teller, and his co-stars flew for months before the filming for Top Gun: Maverick eventually kickstarted. But while in the case of Top Gun 2, the difficulties stemmed from the prolonged period of training, the opposite was the case for Whiplash, which shot him to prominence.

Similar to the film itself, the shooting process for Whiplash was pretty intense, as they had a limited filming window, which took some major toll on the cast and crew, especially Teller.

Not all great movies succeed at the box office; quality doesn't always equal profit. Timing and marketing play a big role in a movie's success, not just its content. Flops can become classics, with films like Scott Pilgrim & Blade Runner 2049 still being praised years later.

Movies shouldn't be defined by their financial performance, as some great movies from the 2010s were seen as commercial failures at the time. A movie's box office receipts don't always reflect its quality. Timing and marketing are two huge factors that can influence how much money a movie makes, and they are both completely out of the hands of the people who actually worked on the movie.

There have been plenty of great movies which bombed at the box office over the years, and the 2010s were no different. Huge directors like Martin Scorsese, Paul Thomas Anderson and Denis Villeneuve all had box office flops in the 2010s,...

Writing and directing a short is a potential passageway to creating a full-length feature film.

Aspiring directors use this medium to create a proof of concept on a small budget that can go on to win on the short film festival circuit and be picked up by investors, leading to larger projects and paving the way to a career in Hollywood.

Shorts are not uncommon to be made as proof of concept for a feature film, especially by first-time directors. Multiple Oscar-nominated actor Bradley Cooper, for example, had to prove to the studio heads that he was capable of directing A Star Is Born, also starring Lady Gaga, in 2019 by creating a short.

The box office hit Smile, directed by Parker Finn, is a recent success story of how a short can go on to launch a career. Finn’s short film for Smile initially titled Laura Hasn’t Slept...

Warning: The following contains major spoilers for Jennifer’s Body and Lisa Frankenstein.

Few female killers in the wide world of horror have been able to match the impact of Jennifer Check. Played by the incomparable Megan Fox, Diablo Cody’s teenage seductress rises from the ashes of a hideous crime and returns to wreak bloody vengeance on the teenage boys in her small town. Jennifer’s Body was initially dismissed as a vapid vehicle for a gorgeous star – an unfortunate parallel to the film’s own message – but Karyn Kusama’s teen horror comedy has finally found a devoted audience that appreciates its biting satire and unflinching look at the hell of teenage girlhood. Fifteen years later, Cody returns to the genre with a new heroine searching for power in a world built to dismiss her. Directed by Zelda Williams, Lisa Frankenstein follows a teenage girl desperate for acceptance who...

Exclusive: Production has wrapped on indie feature Bad Man, starring Seann William Scott (American Pie) alongside Johnny Simmons (The Perks of Being a Wallflower), Rob Riggle (21 Jump Street), Chance Perdomo (After We Fell), Andre Hyland (Barry), and Lovi Poe (Chelsea Cowboy).

Inspired by a true story, the action-comedy follows a wild man state cop (Scott) who shows up in a small town with a big meth problem and immediately butts heads with a strait-laced local deputy (Simmons) as they attempt to solve a murder.

The production marks the feature directorial debut for Michael Diliberti, who co-wrote the screenplay with JJ Nelson. Previously, he wrote the Sony movie 30 Minutes or Less which starred Danny McBride, Jesse Eisenberg, Michael Pena, and Aziz Ansari, with Ben Stiller producing.

Producers are Warner Davis and Todd Friedman for Hemlock Circle Productions, Brian Levy for Entertainment 360, Monty Blencowe and Shaun Sanghani for Sss Entertainment.

“Hell is a teenage girl.”

By now it’s safe to say that the world was not ready for Jennifer’s Body when it first released in 2009. Call it bad marketing, Juno fatigue, or audience aversion to a female-led horror comedy, this progressive film not only bombed at the box office, it sent director Karyn Kusama to what she calls “movie jail” for the better part of the next decade. But nearly fifteen years later, this beloved film about female empowerment seems to have finally found its audience. Not only is it a prime example of Boys In Danger horror, but Kusama and writer Diablo Cody take...

Diablo Cody returned to the horror-comedy genre with Lisa Frankenstein and is now declaring that her previous film, Jennifer’s Body, takes place in the same universe.

“I am just declaring that this movie takes place in the same universe,” Cody told Deadline during the premiere of Lisa Frankenstein. “I have decided that. I will not say that you’d see any overt references to that but I’m saying it.”

Jennifer’s Body is a 2009 horror comedy that Cody wrote starring Megan Fox in the titular role. The film follows a high school student who becomes demonically possessed following a sacrifice and kills her classmates to eat their flesh in order to survive. Amanda Seyfried, Johnny Simmons, J.K. Simmons, Amy Sedaris and Adam Brody also starred.

Jennifer's Body 2 faces a major challenge in bringing back Jennifer after her death in the first film. The potential focus for Jennifer's Body 2 could be on Needy and her manifestation of Jennifer's succubus powers. Jennifer's Body 2 would need to justify bringing Jennifer back after over a decade since the first film's release.

A sequel to Jennifer’s Body has been teased by writer Diablo Cody, but Jennifer’s Body 2 has a major challenge to overcome, if it happens. Back in 2009, the teen horror comedy film Jennifer’s Body was released, directed by Karyn Kusama and written by Diablo Cody. Jennifer’s Body is now considered a cult classic, but it took it years to achieve such status, and it had a rocky release and reception.

Jennifer’s Body introduces viewers to shy high school student Anita “Needy” Lesnicki (Amanda Seyfried) and her popular and extroverted best friend Jennifer Check (Megan Fox). After one night...

'Jennifer's Body' writer Diablo Cody is desperate to make a sequel.The 45-year-old filmmaker - who has written the likes of 'Juno' and 'Tully' in the past, as well as Zelda Williams' upcoming horror comedy 'Lisa Frankenstein' - admitted she has struggled to find someone to finance a revival of the 2009 Megan Fox-led cult classic.She told Bloody Disgusting's 'Boo Crew Podcast': "I wanna do a sequel.

Jennifer's Body sequel possibility has been revealed by writer Diablo Cody as she wants to make another movie and needs the right partners who believe in it. Cody admits initial "saltiness" at the film's failure in 2009, but is now happy with the positive reception it has gained in recent years. Jennifer's Body's marketing to men and focus on Megan Fox's sex appeal contributed to its initial underwhelming performance, but its messaging and ahead-of-its-time story have been praised by audiences, particularly young women.

Jennifer's Body gets an exciting sequel update from writer Diablo Cody, 15 years after its release. The horror-comedy followed a possessed high school student, Jennifer Check (Megan Fox), who begins feeding on male classmates, while disconcerting her childhood best friend Needy Lesnicki. Along with Fox, the cast of Jennifer's Body included Amanda Seyfried, Johnny Simmons, Adam Brody, Amy Sedaris, and J.K. Simmons. The film garnered mixed reactions...

Scott Pilgrim is taking on the world again in a new anime series coming to Netflix on Nov. 17… and you can treat your eyes and ears to a brand new trailer above.

Based on Bryan Lee O’Malley’s hit graphic novels, which were adapted into the 2010 live-action film Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, Scott Pilgrim Takes Off is bringing back Scott, Ramona Flowers, and all seven of her evil exes. And, as previously announced, the original film cast will reprise their roles.

Who’s in the cast of the Scott Pilgrim Takes Off anime series?

Taking a deep breath: Michael Cera returns as the 23-year-old bass player of Sex Bob-Omb, Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Ramona, Kieran Culkin as Wallace Wells, Anna Kendrick as Stacey Pilgrim, Brie Larson as Envy Adams, Alison Pill as Kim Pine, Aubrey Plaza as Julie Powers, Johnny Simmons as young Neil, Mark Webber as Stephen Stills,...

Sex Bob-omb fans, the reunion is here. The anime adaptation of Scott Pilgrim vs. the World that will stream on Netflix, sporting the title Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, has landed. The platform has now released an all-new behind-the-scenes featurette where you get to see the cast of the movie in the recording booth providing the lines for the animated series. The video also spotlights the addition of comedic actor Will Forte as he professes his love for the Edgar Wright film and showcases his excitement to be part of the project as an old version of Scott Pilgrim.

The details of Scott Pilgrim Takes Off from Netflix reads,

Scott Pilgrim meets the girl of his dreams, Ramona Flowers, and discovers he must defeat her seven evil exes in order to date her. But this time, things get even more complicated. Based on the graphic novels by Bryan Lee O’Malley, Scott...

Spoiler Alert: This story discusses several major plot developments throughout the animated series “Scott Pilgrim Takes Off,” currently streaming on Netflix.

On a bright day in late October, the creators of the new Netflix anime series “Scott Pilgrim Takes Off,” Bryan Lee O’Malley and BenDavid Grabinski, sit inside a Los Angeles arcade bar, trying to look relaxed.

“This is going to be a relief,” Grabinski says. But he doesn’t look quite convinced.

On its face, their show is the second adaptation of O’Malley’s beloved “Scott Pilgrim” graphic novel series, about the titular 20-something Canadian, his new American girlfriend, Ramona, and his quest to defeat her seven evil exes to stay with her. The first adaptation, of course, is director Edgar Wright’s 2010 cult movie “Scott Pilgrim vs. the World.” But even though the entire cast of that film — including Chris Evans, Brie Larson, Jason Schwartzman and Aubrey Plaza — returned to voice their characters,...

Scott Pilgrim is back, but not in the way anyone expected. The new Netflix animated series “Scott Pilgrim Takes Off” is both a continuation of the “Scott Pilgrim vs. the World” story and a complete recontextualization of what transpired, twisting and morphing the source material into something completely new. And who better to do it than the author responsible for creating “Scott Pilgrim” in the first place?

The anime “Scott Pilgrim Takes Off” is created by Bryan Lee O’Malley and BenDavid Grabinski, and while it begins similarly to “Scott Pilgrim vs. the World,” a shocking twist at the end of Episode 1 soon takes this story in a different direction.

Edgar Wright, who co-wrote and directed the 2010 film adaptation “Scott Pilgrim vs. the World,” is involved in this new series as an executive producer and he also helped bring a big piece of the puzzle together: the cast.

Indeed, the entire...

Edgar Wright's Cornetto Trilogy is one of those movie trilogies that is linked in nearly every way except narratively. In other words, while visual elements, themes, actors and even jokes repeat between 2004's "Shaun of the Dead," 2007's "Hot Fuzz" and 2013's "The World's End," the films don't actually share any characters or even take place in the same universe. That's because it was formed as a joke in and of itself at first, with a throwaway reference to the Italian mini-ice cream cones in "Shaun" leading to Wright and actor/co-writer Simon Pegg attempting to emulate (and lightly parody) other thematic trilogies such as the "Three Colours" trilogy by Krzysztof Kieślowski.

Ever since "The World's End," there's been no further reference to Cornettos or the characters and events in the Trilogy in Wright's work — until now. As Wright's film adaptation of creator Bryan Lee O'Malley's "Scott Pilgrim" series of comics,...

This post contains spoilers for "Scott Pilgrim Takes Off" and "Scott Pilgrim vs. The World."

You might have varied expectations from "Scott Pilgrim Takes Off" — the animated Netflix series that is based on the "Scott Pilgrim" graphic novels by Bryan Lee O'Malley — but it is not a recreation of 2010's "Scott Pilgrim vs. The World." The film, rightfully, is beloved for various reasons throughout its journey from box-office bomb to cult classic, be it its fun videogame-style aesthetics or the unabashed celebration of its quirky, inventive core. Instead of using the film as a base to expand upon its arcade-fighting structured narrative, "Scott Pilgrim Takes Off" completely flips the script and dives right into mystery-thriller territory while still retaining the quirks of the original.

The ensemble cast from the film adaptation has returned for this new adventure, lending more immersion to this fresh story from the get-go, as these are...

(Editor’s note: The following article contains mild overarching plot spoilers for “Scott Pilgrim Takes Off.”)

After endless reboots, sequels, and revivals, fans of big movies and TV shows aren’t clamoring for more the way they once were. But with “Scott Pilgrim Takes Off,” Netflix and creators Bryan Lee O’Malley and BenDavid Grabinski show that a franchise reset doesn’t mean the death of creativity or more of the same; it can be a fresh opportunity for a beloved property like “Scott Pilgrim” to completely revamp itself and find a brand new audience — while still satisfying old fans.

With one general spoiler for the entire series ahead, “Scott Pilgrim Takes Off” is not the story of O’Malley’s six graphic novels, which wrapped up in the same year as Edgar Wright’s big-screen adaptation “Scott Pilgrim vs. the World” — and it’s not that movie either. The animated series is a secret third thing,...

Do you feel that? The disturbance in the distance, in the general direction of Toronto, Canada? That's a sign that the Scott Pilgrim universe is changing. Fans have known for a while now to expect something slightly different from "Scott Pilgrim Takes Off," as Edgar Wright previously noted (via Empire) that the show "doesn't just expand the universe, but also... well, just watch it." Still, I'm not sure anyone anticipated the show being quite so much of a departure from the original, especially with all those deceptively faithful trailers Netflix dropped.

If you're somehow reading this without having watched the new season in its entirety, this is your sign to stop here and go catch up. Everyone else: let's unpack what we just saw, shall we? This epic reimagining of the Scott Pilgrim story comes straight from original comic author Bryan Lee O'Malley himself, who co-created and co-wrote the new show with BenDavid Grabinski.

Editor’s Note: This review contains spoilers.

From its marketing and anime-styled opening credits, Scott Pilgrim Takes Off could be confused for a straightforward adaptation of Bryan Lee O’Malley’s Scott Pilgrim graphic novel series, albeit one determined not to step on the toes of Edgar Wright’s Scott Pilgrim vs. the World. Many scenes from the Netflix series, particularly in the first episode, are staged almost identically to their equivalents in Wright’s 2010 film, and the entire cast returns to voice their animated counterparts. Once again, Scott Pilgrim (Michael Cera) is poised to fight the seven evil exes of his dream girl, Ramona Flowers (Mary Elizabeth Winstead).

By the time the first episode concludes, however, Scott Pilgrim Takes Off has firmly announced its intention to go in another direction, as well as clarified the meaning of its title in the process: that Scott Pilgrim is nowhere to be found.

"You went on one date! How good could it have been?" "Honestly, great." Netflix has revealed a final trailer for Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, an animated take on the beloved Scott Pilgrim comic book series. Creator Bryan Lee O'Malley returned to develop this, with his distinct visual style coming to life on the screen as an animation series for streaming. Scott Pilgrim meets the girl of his dreams, Ramona Flowers, but learns he must defeat her seven evil exes in order to date her. Then things get even more complicated. Based on the beloved graphic novels by O'Malley. Scott Pilgrim Takes Off runs 8 eps – with the voices of Michael Cera, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Satya Bhabha, Kieran Culkin, Chris Evans, Alison Pill, Brie Larson, Aubrey Plaza, Anna Kendrick, Brandon Routh, Jason Schwartzman, Johnny Simmons, Mark Webber, Mae Whitman, and Ellen Wong (pretty much the entire cast from Edgar Wright's movies...

There’s the lovelorn bassist Scott (Michael Cera), his dream girl Ramona Flowers (Mary Elizabeth Winstead), and her seven revenge-seeking exes — including the half-ninja Roxie Richter (Mae Whitman), the vegan rockstar Todd Ingram (Brandon Routh), the fairly decent skateboarder Lucas Lee...

“I was very nervous,” O’Malley told EW of bringing the story to TV. “I didn’t know we would get anyone, or especially everyone. We just started asking, and Edgar asked, and I wrote a really nice letter, and everyone just very very kindly and very promptly said yes.”

And as he explained, the cause of getting...

Back in March, Netflix announced that it would be reuniting most of the cast and crew from Edgar Wright’s 2010 film Scott Pilgrim vs. the World for a new series. The biggest difference? The whole thing would be anime. It was already an exciting prospect, taking the pages of Bryan Lee O’Malley and BenDavid Grabinski’s graphic novel. Seeing the animation in all its glory in the trailer, it’s clear that this is the way the story was always meant to be seen.

Once again Michael Cera stars as the titular Scott Pilgrim with Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Satya Bhabha, Kieran Culkin, Chris Evans, Anna Kendrick, Brie Larson, Alison Pill, Aubrey Plaza, Brandon Routh, Jason Schwartzman, Johnny Simmons, Marc Webber, Mae Whitman and Ellen Wong all reprising their original roles. Their animated counterparts fight, swoon, and sing in comic book-style technicolor.

“Scott Pilgrim meets the girl of his dreams, Ramona Flowers, but learns he must defeat her seven evil exes in order to date her,” reads the official Netflix synopsis of the new series. “Then things get even more complicated. Based on the graphic novels by Bryan Lee O’Malley.”
