Happy Death Day 3: Will It Happen?

Here are the most recent Happy Death Day 3 updates, which include all the information currently available about the upcoming installment of writer-director Christopher Landon's genre-bending sci-fi/comedy/horror franchise. Happy Death Day 2U sets the stage for a possible Happy Death Day 3. Tree Gelbman (Jessica Rothe) discovered the reason behind the time loop that caused her to relive and be killed repeatedly in Happy Death Day 2U: Ryan (Phi Vu), Tree's boyfriend Carter's (Isarel Broussard) science-nerd roommate, created a device known as the Sisyphus Quantum Cooling Reactor (SISSY).

Then, SISSY became overloaded, sending Tree to a parallel dimension in addition to trapping her in another time loop. Tree needed to stop a new Babyface Killer while figuring out how to get home. Happy Death Day 2U established a third chapter and greatly expanded the franchise. However, since the last Happy Death Day 3 film was released in 2019, there have been, to put it mildly, very few updates. Christopher Landon, the director of Happy Death Day, has explained why the third film hasn't been produced yet, pointing to financial constraints. Here are the most recent updates for Happy Death Day 3.

The Most Recent Happy Death Day 3 Information

Sadly, there aren't many Happy Death Day 3 updates available. With Christopher Landon telling The Hollywood Reporter that he would love to make another Happy Death Day, but the chances are slim because the film requires a larger budget, it almost seems as though the third installment has been canceled. "This third movie needs a bigger budget, but since the second movie didn’t perform as well as the first, it’s a tall order," the director of horrors stated. "No movement at all" has been seen on Happy Death Day 3, according to Landon, who recently spoke to Slashfilm.

It was likely hindered by Landon's ambitious plan to shut down the franchise.

In an interview with The Wrap, Landon disclosed the plot details for Happy Death Day 3, titled Happy Death Day to Us, even though the most recent Happy Death Day 3 updates suggest that the movie won't be made. Landon claims that Happy Death Day 3 was intended to be a much larger-scale, high-budget apocalyptic adventure. Unfortunately, Happy Death Day 2U didn't do well enough to attract studio attention, so it's likely that Landon's ambitious plan to wrap up the franchise held it back. "So it’s very hard to motivate them to make a third movie when the last one just didn’t perform," Landon stated.

The third day of Happy Death has not yet been confirmed.

Producer Jason Blum claims that the success of Happy Death Day 2U at the box office was used to decide whether a third movie would be produced. Happy Death Day made $125 million worldwide after opening at $26 million in the US alone in 2017. Happy Death Day 2U made $26 million worldwide in its first five days of release, but only $14 million in the US.

According to the most recent Happy Death Day 3 updates, there won't be a sequel.

Due to Happy Death Day 2U's poor box office performance, the most recent Happy Death Day 3 updates have essentially stated that the sequel will not occur. Blumhouse Productions will now have one less horror film franchise.

Cast of Happy Death Day 3

A cast is obviously missing from the most recent Happy Death Day 3 updates, but if the movie were to be made, Jessica Rothe is expected to reprise her role as the title character, Tree Gelbman. Additionally, it's likely that her boyfriend Carter Davis (Israel Broussard) and his roommate Ryan Phan (Phi Vu) will show up.

Tree was accompanied to the DARPA lab by Samar Ghosh (Suraj Sharma) and Dre Morgan (Sarah Yarkin), so it is also likely that they would return. Actually, because Happy Death Day is a multifaceted story, any character who has made an appearance may return in the following installment.

Story of Happy Death Day Three

Day 2 of Happy Death The plot of Happy Death Day 3 is already established in U's post-credits scene. A new element is presented in the form of DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency), which is headed by Dr. Isaac Parker (Kenneth Israel), after Tree is eventually able to close the loop and return to her home dimension. The college students are taken to a DARPA lab by Dr. Parker, who explains that they have taken control of SISSY and intend to test its ability to trap people in time loops. In order to show that she is trapped in her own time loop, Tree offers her enemy Danielle (played by Rachel Matthews) as SISSY's new victim. Danielle wakes up yelling.

In the third movie, the U.S. government is trying to take advantage of SISSY, continuing the escalation of Tree's universe that was seen in Happy Death Day 2U. This created a plethora of options that would have put Tree back in time and probably saved Danielle. Landon's broader scope virtually demonstrated that Happy Death Day 3 would have featured Tree saving the world, given that the franchise started with Tree saving herself and expanded to include Tree saving her friends in the sequel. The Happy Death Day 3 updates imply that the film isn't happening, even though the Happy Death Day 2U post-credits scene foreshadows a sequel.
