Maika Monroe has had quite the career after starring in the hit indie horror flick It Follows. But it looks as if the leading lady would gladly return for a sequel – as long as original writer-director David Robert Mitchell was onboard as well.
She tells ComicBook.com: “I would absolutely love to work with David again. That would be a dream, but, you know, we’ll just have to wait and see.”

She adds: “It’s been a crazy ride. Being a part of It Follows, there’s so many movies that have changed the horror genre, but I know that It Follows is such a massive influence and this change of the genre, which was so cool to be a part of, and so many people really connected with that film. For me, with these projects, all I can do is give the most honest performance and I don’t look at it necessarily as a horror film or thriller or this or that. It’s just me really falling into this character and bringing as much truth as I can so that people can really fall into the story.”
