A prequel is in development at Warner Bros. and New Line Cinema, with short film director Rodrigue Huart in talks to direct, according to Variety.

Rodrigue, who has no previous feature-length credits, has directed several award-winning short films including Transylvanie, which won a jury prize at SXSW in 2024, as well as Trigger and Real.
