Despite the critical success of “The Invisible Man” in 2020, actor Aldis Hodge revealed that he has not received any updates about a potential sequel. Hodge expressed interest in reprising his role but mentioned the lack of information regarding the development of a follow-up.
The uncertainty surrounding the film’s sequel is attributed to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which disrupted the film industry, and the writers’ and actors’ strikes in the previous year.
Addressing the possibility of a sequel, Hodge shared his enthusiasm for working with director Leigh Whannell and co-star Elisabeth Moss, highlighting Whannell’s talent for suspense.
He expressed openness to participating in a sequel but admitted to not hearing any updates since the release of the first film.
In “The Invisible Man,” Moss portrayed a woman targeted by her supposedly deceased ex-boyfriend, who utilized a suit to become invisible and torment her. Hodge played James, a close friend who aids Moss’s character in seeking revenge against her invisible tormentor.
While Moss hinted at the potential for a sequel in 2022, emphasizing the desire to do justice to the original, she maintained secrecy about specific details.
Moss assured that the creative team was committed to delivering a sequel that would match or surpass the quality of the first film.
Despite the cryptic nature of these comments, Moss playfully acknowledged the delicate balance between satisfying the creative team and the expectations of producers such as Jason Blum and Universal.
The uncertainty surrounding the sequel to “The Invisible Man” leaves fans eagerly awaiting any official updates on the continuation of the suspenseful and critically acclaimed story.
