2016’s ‘The Boy’ will be getting a sequel later this year.

Production on the project began earlier in January. We provided a sneak peak into the film with the recently released photo shots from the film. The film was given a July 26, 2019 release date by STX Entertainment. William Brent Bell returns to write, with Stacey Menear also returning to pen the script.

STXfilms and Lakeshore Entertainment produces the sequel, with Katie Holmes (Ocean’s Eight), Ralph Ineson (Game Of Thrones), Owain Yeoman (The Belko Experiment), and Christopher Convery (The Girl In The Spider’s Web) starring.

You can check out a brief synopsis of the film below:

“Unaware of the terrifying history of Heelshire Mansion, a young family moves into the estate, where their young son soon makes an unsettling new friend, an eerily life-like doll he calls Brahms.”
