Directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett make horror movies that not only soak each scene with blood and gore, but that leave plenty of room for fans to theorize about possible sequels. With Ready or Not 2 in the works, and both Scream 2022 and Scream VI under their belts, is it any wonder Abigail stars Melissa Barrera and Alisha Weir have some pretty twisted ideas of their own for a sequel?
Abigail may start out as a crime thriller, but the kidnapping of a young girl (Weir) takes a sharp turn into a nightmarish bloodbath for this group of criminals. Tasked with holding the daughter of a very wealthy man hostage for 24 hours, a group of strangers is brought together to a sprawling estate where $50 million is on the line. It isn't long before it's revealed that Abigail is actually a vampire with her teeth set on some ne'er-do-wells, turning the job into a fight for survival.
During this interview with Collider's Perri Nemiroff, Barrera admits she was "constantly surprised" by her co-stars on set as the movie took on a new life going from script to screen, and credits Weir for that emotionally charged final scene. Weir, who Grand Jetés into our hearts in her first-ever lead role in a horror movie, shares some advice for other actors jumping into the genre for the first time, and also highlights a moment on set when Barrera helped her out during a challenging scene.
