Is a follow-up to the cult classic sci-fi horror film The Thing by John Carpenter planned?
When asked about the fate of Keith David’s character, Childs, from the first movie during Texas Frightmare Weekend 2023,
Carpenter played it cool and teased at the prospect of a follow-up without providing any details: βI have been sworn to secrecy, okay, because there may be, I donβt know if there will be, there may be a
Thing 2.βRumors of a sequel have circulated for some time, but no concrete details have emerged. Yet, Carpenter has occasionally dropped hints that suggest the project could be moving forward, stating last year, “There are updates, but I’m bound not to discuss them.”
