The Grudge and The Grudge 2 screenwriter Stephen Susco tells Dread Central that Sarah Michelle Gellar will reprise her role of Karen Davis in the sequel.

Talking from Japan, Susco revealed that "SMG is back. Without giving anything away, we've all been pretty focused on making a sequel that has a strong raison d'etre - a second chapter to an evolving story, instead of a sequel that's made just because the first one performed well."

The follow-up starts filming on January 20th with Takashi Shimizu back in the director's chair. Columbia Pictures will release the Ghost House Pictures project on October 20, 2006. Stay tuned to GhostHousePictures.com for more on the sequel.

In all honesty I thought the first (American) "The Grudge" was lousy, but it made money and thats all that matters to studios. Lets hope the second one is better.

Sometimes I wonder if I'm the only person who liked the Grudge. The original was much better, of course, but the remake was well-done, in my opinion. I don't object to a sequel, but I find it questionable that Gellar's character is returning... the last scene of the first film sort of indicates otherwise.

Why?? The 1st one was borrring and a good one to nap 2!

I love Ju-On, but the American version was pretty weak. so I'm gonna agree with everyone else. no, we don't need another Grudge movie.

[mothermold]

the fact that smg is returning for a sequel should'nt surprise anyone.grudge 2 and the scooby-doo movies are about the only thing keeping her career afloat.

the american version of Ju-on was a goddamned trainwreck.why they would want to rehash this is anyones guess.
