Among the many upcoming horror films that have me eagerly waiting, the prospect of Jennifer’s Body 2 being added to the list would make me considerably more enthusiastic. Although the original 2009 film was a commercial failure that I personally missed out on due to marketing reasons, it has since transformed into a recognized horror masterpiece. Therefore, learning about Amanda Seyfried and Adam Brody discussing a sequel filled me with great joy.
Previously, screenwriter Diablo Cody expressed that she hasn’t fully moved on from the film “Jennifer’s Body” despite having a rocky start with its release. Recently, actress Amanda Seyfried initiated discussions about it when she reconnected with her co-star Adam Brody. (Just in case you didn’t remember, Seyfried starred in “Jennifer’s Body“) Here’s the exchange between them that you can find below:
Amanda Seyfried: “We’re going to do another one. Are you going to do it?”
Adam Brody: “I certainly wasn’t contacted. I died.”
Amanda Seyfried: “You did die, but so did Megan [Fox], and I’m not doing it without her.”
Adam Brody stated, “There are some mysterious or spiritual factors at work, but to be honest, they seem rather unrelated to…
Amanda Seyfried: “Not if you played the devil.”
Adam Brody: “If I played THE devil?”
Amanda Seyfried: “That would be amazing.”
Adam Brody: “Is there a devil in it?’
As a movie fanatic, I can’t claim to have insider knowledge about the project, but when producer Mason Novick approached me with the opportunity to be involved, my response was an enthusiastic “Sign me up!” If he gets this film made, you can count on me being there.
In one of the recent episodes on Actors on Actors by Variety, Seyfried and Brody engaged in a wide-ranging discussion about their respective careers, both garnering praise for their latest TV series. During this conversation, it’s delightful to note that Seyfried not only mentioned the potential return of Jennifer’s Body 2, but also encouraged Brody to consider a compelling role in future projects.
The film titled “Jennifer’s Body” was indeed forward-thinking in its approach, and so was its star-studded cast that included Megan Fox, J.K. Simmons, Amy Sedaris, Kyle Gallner, and Chris Pratt. Today, it’s frequently recognized as one of the finest female-led horror movies written and directed, with a strong focus on social commentary. It offers insightful perspectives on the objectification of women and presents compelling queer representation.

Could it be intriguing if Adam Brody, known for his role, took on the part of the Devil in the upcoming sequel? As Seyfried mentioned, she has no clue about what the filmmakers are planning, but her speculation seems plausible. You may remember that in the first movie, Brody portrayed a musician in a band called Low Shoulder, who led Megan Fox’s character Jennifer into the woods and offered her as a sacrifice to Satan for fame and fortune.
Since Jennifer isn’t a virgin, she transforms into a murderous succubus instead. If Brody’s character were to return as the Devil, it would be brilliant because he originally summoned all the evil. This twist aligns perfectly since it contradicts the typical nice-guy role he often portrays.
As a die-hard movie fan, I can’t help but express my excitement for the potential discussion surrounding Jennifer’s Body 2. Frankly, I believe that this long-awaited sequel deserves more attention!
