Something to bring a smile to your face. Smile 2, sequel to the box office horror hit Smile, has been rated R-18, and will be shown in cinemas in its full uncut g(l)ory.

In 2022, the psychological horror film Smile took the movie world by storm, scaring up $217 million at the global box office. This year’s Smile 2 ups the ante, with a story centered on global pop sensation Skye Riley, played by Naomi Scott (Aladdin, Charlie’s Angels), who begins to experience increasingly terrifying and inexplicable events, just as she’s about to embark on a new world tour. 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.

Below are reasons not to miss Smile 2, in cinemas starting October 16.

Higher stakes, massive scale 

Smile 2 (directed by Parker Finn, who helmed the original) continues the twisted and terrifying story of the curse in Smile. With the story now centered on global pop star Skye Riley, the stakes are higher, the stage much bigger, the scale more devastating. And what better way to witness those horrors than on the big screen – with no cuts.

What happens to Joel? 

Like all good horror movies, the original Smile ended on a cliffhanger. Smile 2 picks up right where the first movie left off. Fans wondering what happens to Joel now that the curse has been passed on to him will immediately find out – and how.

Familiar faces, bigger names

Sosie Bacon’s charismatic performance as therapist Rose Cotter in the first film helped bring success to Smile and now Smile 2 boasts of even more familiar names in its cast. The mind-bending horrors caused by the Smile Entity might make some viewers want to look away from the screen, but Naomi Scott, Rosemarie DeWitt (La La Land, Rachel Getting Married) and Lukas Gage (You, Euphoria, Fargo) will surely keep everyone’s eyes glued to the big screen.

Naomi Scott as Skye Riley the pop star 

Whether she’s on stage performing, at a convention meeting fans, or at home chilling (or trying to), Scott gives a riveting and gripping performance as increasingly troubled global pop sensation Skye Riley. Plus, get ready to sing along to some catchy tunes from Riley’s album “Skye is Limitless.”

That now iconic smile

Say cheese. We can’t wait to see you smile.

Smile 2, distributed in the Philippines by Paramount Pictures through Columbia Pictures, is rated R-18 and will haunt Philippine cinemas – uncut – starting October 16. Join the conversation with the hashtag #Smile2 #SmileMovie and tag @paramountpicsph
