Taglines: The greatest evil in the conjuring universe.
The Nun 2 movie storyline. A follow-up to the enigmatic gothic horror about a strong evil that haunts and causes supernatural harm to everybody it comes into contact with. After the events of the first film, the said powerful evil now begins to spread in 1956 throughout a town in France as word gets out that a priest has been violently murdered. A finished contemplative in her novitiate, Sister Irene, begins to investigate the murder, only to find a demon behind it — the same evil that terrorized her in the original film as a nun — Valak, whom she once again soon comes to encounter.
The Nun 2 is an American gothic supernatural horror film directed by Michael Chaves, with a screenplay written by Ian Goldberg, Richard Naing, and Akela Cooper from a story by Cooper. It serves as a sequel to The Nun (2018) and the ninth installment in The Conjuring Universe franchise. The film stars Taissa Farmiga, Jonas Bloquet and Bonnie Aarons, returning from the first film, with Storm Reid and Anna Popplewell joining the cast. Peter Safran and James Wan return as producers.
In 2017, Wan discussed the possibility of a Nun sequel and by 2019, Safran revealed that the film was in early development. Cooper was initially hired as the sole writer for the film, before Goldberg and Naing contributed as screenwriters to the final version of the script.
Chaves, who had directed two previous films in The Conjuring Universe, The Curse of La Llorona (2019) and The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It (2021), was announced to direct the film. Principal photography began in October 2022 in France. The Nun 2 was theatrically released in the United States on September 8, 2023, by Warner Bros. Pictures.
