IN A VIOLENT NATURE Sequel Announced
Shudder and IFC Films announced that a sequel to Chris Nash's smash hit slasher flick, In A Violent Nature, is in early development. Variety reported on this yesterday after the news was revealed during the “The Bold Voice of Contemporary Horror” panel at SDCC. The teaser poster of the now infamous steel hook was unveiled during the announcement. 
 
Sequel producers include Peter Kuplowsky and Shannon Hanmer, and the first film’s writer and director, Chris Nash, will return as screenwriter. Emily Gotto, Nicholas Lazo and Samuel Zimmerman are overseeing development for Shudder.
 
“‘In a Violent Nature’ demonstrated that there continues to be a yearning for new perspectives in the horror landscape. We knew immediately that this distinctive take on the slasher would enthrall fans and are glad to see the community embrace a new slasher icon in Johnny,” head of AMC Networks’ film group Scott Shooman said in a statement. “With the sequel, we aim to prove that Johnny can be bigger, meaner, and his kills can only get more impressive.”
 
“‘In a Violent Nature’ was originally conceived as a meta-sequel within a fictional slasher series, so we were always imagining mayhem beyond the scope of the original film,” Kuplowsky also said in a statement. “That we now have the opportunity to continue following Johnny on his restless walk has us feeling incredibly grateful to our incredible partners at IFC Films / Shudder who believed in Chris’ vision from day one. We are thrilled to return for a new chapter and are excited to deploy Johnny as a conduit to further experiments in the genre.”
In A Violent Nature is still touring the international festival circuit, playing in theaters in the U.S. and on VOD. Shudder shared that it will start streaming on the platform, fittingly in September on Friday the 13th.
