Not a lot is known in regards to the plot as of yet but the script is being penned by Jon and Erich Hoeber who are working off an initial draft from Dean Georgaris. All three were credited with writing the 2018 adaptation of the Steve Alten novel. Lorenzo di Bonaventura and Belle Avery are back as producers.

After the first film scared up $530.3 million globally it comes as no surprise a second film os one the way.
