Smile 2 trailer reveals the twisted life of a pop star and the smiling curse

June 18, 2024 by EJ Moreno

This is nothing to smile about…the curse is global.

If you recall, Smile was one of the 2022 smash horror hits in a year dominated by modern horror classics. A sequel is coming, and our smiles couldn’t be bigger.

In what looks to expand the scale and scope of the horror film, Paramount’s newly released teaser for Smile 2 is chilling and addictive.

As we follow the story of pop sensation Skye Riley (played by Aladdin’s Naomi Scott), we see our world crumbling. Not only are the high demands of a pop star weighing her down, but a killer curse is haunting her everywhere she goes.

Heading to cinemas this Halloween, you can check out the poster and teaser trailer for Smile 2 below…

About to embark on a new world tour, global pop sensation Skye Riley (Naomi Scott) begins experiencing increasingly terrifying and inexplicable events. Overwhelmed by the escalating horrors and the pressures of fame, Skye is forced to face her dark past to regain control of her life before it spirals out of control.

Smile 2, directed by Parker Finn, stars Naomi Scott, Lukas Gage, Rosemarie DeWitt, and a returning Kyle Gallner.

Smile 2 is only in theatres on October 18th.
