Blumhouse Productions and Universal Pictures have announced a sequel to 2017 horror hit "Happy Death Day".
The sequel, titled "Happy Death Day 2U", will feature the film's original leads Jessica Rothe and Israel Broussard, who most recently starred in Netflix's rom com "To All the Boys I've Loved Before".
"Life of Pi" star Suraj Sharma will join them in the film, which will be once again written and directed by Christopher Landon, reported Variety.
The first film followed Tree Gelbman (Rothe), who wakes up on her birthday alongside Carter (Broussard) and gets brutally killed later in the day. She relives the day of her murder in "Groundhog Day" style.
In the sequel, Tree will discover that dying over and over was surprisingly easier than the dangers that lie ahead.
The original film hit the theatres in October last year and earned USD 122.7 million worldwide.
The sequel has been given a release date of February 14, 2019.
It will be produced by Jason Blum while Angela Mancuso, John Baldecchi and Samson Mucke will serve as executive producers.
