Naomi Scott, a beloved British actress and singer, is starring in the new ‘Smile 2’ movie. She first began her acting career on Disney Channel starring in the show ‘Life Bites’. In 2011, she gained more recognition from her role in the hit musical film ‘Lemonade Mouth’. From there, she has progressed in her career by starring in multiple hit films and achieving international fame. In 2019, she starred in Disney’s live-action ‘Aladdin’. For her portrayal as Princess Jasmine, she received a Teen Choice Award for Sci-Fi/Fantasy Movie Actress.
The First Smile (2022)
Sosie Bacon starred in the first ‘Smile’ released in 2022 as Dr. Rose Cotter, a psychiatric therapist. The film is a psychological horror that begins with Rose witnessing a patient’s suicide. Her life begins to unravel, and inexplicable events start to occur. A paranormal entity that takes human form haunts her with a sinister smile. As the movie plays, Rose learns that it is a pattern of psychological torture—people who witness a suicide become increasingly unstable up to a week before they commit suicide themselves. The entity passes from person to person and feeds off their fear of uncertainty.
The Official Smile 2 Trailer
Naomi Scott stars in ‘Smile 2’ as Skye Riley. She is the supposed next victim of the paranormal entity. They also bring back Kyle Gallner, who played Joel in the original movie. At the end of ‘Smile’, Rose attempts suicide in private, but her ex-boyfriend, Joel, barges in at the last minute and becomes consumed by the entity. In ‘Smile 2’, Skye Riley begins to experience the inexplicable horrors that Rose experienced in the first film.
The trailer shows Skye witnessing the death of someone close to her. The entity has become latched onto her and will not let go. She is expected to face her past to take back control of her life. Of course, she faces a lot of sinister smiles along the way. The entity can take the form of anyone, so she is constantly on edge. Sometimes it will take the form of the people she knows. This creates psychological trauma in her and that’s how the entity feeds.
Final Thoughts
‘Smile 2’ is set to be released on October 18, 2024. It will premiere in theaters before moving to Paramount Plus. The Smile movies are considered to be a unique take on horror, and they stand out in an overcrowded genre. They don’t focus on what’s expected in a typical horror film, like jump scares. Instead, they build tension and create a slow burn. It makes you dread what is to come next. They go beyond surface-level horror and dig deep into the individuals. If you’re a horror buff, take a swing at these movies; you won’t be disappointed.
