Elisabeth Moss Confirms Ongoing Development of Invisible Man Sequel After Five Years

Five years after the success of Blumhouse's 2020 film The Invisible Man, starring Elisabeth Moss, a sequel is still in development but has been delayed due to the high standards set by the original. Moss expressed gratitude towards Universal Pictures and producer Jason Blum for refusing to rush a sequel just for profit, emphasizing the importance of a worthy script that meets or exceeds the original's quality. The original film, directed by Leigh Whannell, was praised for its fresh take on the classic Universal monster story and for Elisabeth Moss's compelling performance as Cecilia, a woman tormented by her invisible ex. Despite the long wait and scarce updates, Moss confirmed that the team remains passionate and committed to making the sequel right. The cautious approach contrasts with typical quick sequels and reflects a desire to honor the original's legacy rather than exploit its commercial success. The film's success during the early COVID-19 pandemic, earning over $145 million on a modest budget, underscores the significance of maintaining quality over haste.
