What do Samara Weaving, Kathryn Newton and Elijah Wood have in common? They all star in Radio Silence’s Ready or Not 2: Here I Come, releasing in theaters March 20!
All three actors also took part in a joint Ask-Me-Anything session over on Reddit last night, where they each revealed their favorite horror movies, actors, and filmmakers.
Samara Weaving’s favorite horror movies?
Weaving answers on Reddit, “All-time is hard. Maybe M. Night’s The Sixth Sense? I enjoy his movies. More recently. I did LOVE [28 Years Later:] The Bone Temple.”
Weaving’s horror idols? “Jamie Lee Curtis & Courteney Cox.”
‘Jennifer’s Body’
Kathryn Newton’s favorite horror movies?
Newton responds, “I really love Jennifer’s Body. It was one of the first horrors I saw in theaters and I was terrified, mortified, scared, and excited all at the same time.”
Jennifer’s Body was written by Diablo Cody, it’s interesting to note, who more recently wrote the horror-comedy Lisa Frankenstein. The star of that movie? Kathryn Newton!
Newton’s horror idols? “Samara Weaving of course,” she lovingly answers on Reddit. “Drew Barrymore too. Nicolas Cage. He’s so good in horror. His unhinged and weird characters are the best. Insane performance in Longlegs. Some of it is too scary for me though.”
John Carpenter’s ‘The Thing’
Elijah Wood’s favorite horror movies?
“John Carpenter’s The Thing,” Wood answers. “For a newer one, Weapons is incredible.”
And Elijah Wood’s horror idols? He responds, “I’m thinking of filmmakers like [Dario] Argento, John Carpenter, Wes Craven, David Cronenberg, [Alfred] Hitchcock, Mario Bava. So many new folks too. Zach Cregger, crushing it.”
Catch Samara Weaving, Kathryn Newton, and Elijah Wood up on the big screen together in bloody sequel Ready or Not 2: Here I Come, releasing only in theaters on March 20, 2026.
Ready or Not 2: Here I Come picks up moments after the all-out attack from the Le Domas family. Grace (Samara Weaving) discovers she’s reached the next level of the nightmarish game — and this time with her estranged sister Faith (Kathryn Newton) at her side.
Grace has one chance to survive and claim the High Seat of the Council that controls the world. Four rival families are hunting her for the throne, and whoever wins rules it all.
