Five years after the first installment was released, Golden Globe winner Elisabeth Moss has opened up about the long development process of The Invisible Man 2.

It earned a worldwide gross of over $145 million at the box office against a reported budget of around $7 million.

What did Elisabeth Moss say about The Invisible Man 2?

During a recent interview with ScreenRant, Moss confirmed that The Invisible Man 2 is still in the works, revealing that they’re taking their time finding the right story for the sequel. She also praised Universal Pictures and Blumhouse for not compromising the sequel’s story quality for the sake of profit.

“We could have easily just churned out a sequel and thrown it up on streaming and called it a day, and I think some people would’ve made money off of that,” Moss said. “I am so grateful to Universal and Blum for not doing that and for having a standard that’s unusual in these circumstances and really wanting it to be worth doing. So it’s an unusual thing, but that doesn’t usually happen. But I feel like it’s important. We love that movie so much. The people who made it – we’re so proud of it.”

She continued, “We really want to make sure [that] if we do a sequel, it’s worthy and it’s going to have to be as good, if not better. So that’s been kind of what’s slowed us down. But I don’t think that’s a bad thing. I think if we’re going to do it, it’s got to be right. But we still want to do it. We’re still working on it. We just have to get the right script together.

The Invisible Man was written, directed, and executive-produced by Leigh Whannell, one of the original conceivers of the Saw franchise. The movie also starred Aldis Hodge, Oliver Jackson-Cohen, Storm Reid, Harriet Dyer, and Michael Dorman. During its theatrical run, the sci-fi horror movie wasn’t only a commercial success but was also a hit among critics, with a Certified Fresh rating of 92% on Rotten Tomatoes.
