This Marvel horror movie may have a sequel and we’re waiting for it!

If you were a Marvel subscriber and fan in October 2022, then you probably didn’t miss Werewolf by Night. This mid-length film directed by Michael Giacchino (speaking of the composer) was very special.

La Maison des Idées wanted to pay homage to genre films by offering a black-and-white program with a new character from the Marvel Universe: The Werewolf, played on screen by Gael García Bernal.

The audience is invited to join a group of monster hunters who gather at the terrifying Bloodstone Temple after the death of their leader. During a strange ceremony dedicated to his memory, members of this secret organization participate in a mysterious competition, risking their lives in the hope of recovering a magical relic. This treasure hunt will lead them to a terrifying monster.

As explained in this article, werewolves by night are the law of the universe. In addition to Easter eggs reminiscent of other MCU films, it introduces a character that could gain importance in the sequel: Elsa Bluestone, heiress of the Bluestone family and owner of Bloodstone.

So what about the sequel to Werewolf Night? Michael Giacchino is definitely ready, as he reveals In this interviewAnd he’s waiting for just one thing: a call from the big boss, Kevin Feige:

“Nothing happens until you decide to put money into it. My dream is to continue working on these characters. I have some pretty crazy ideas about it. I hope one day I will be allowed to do them.”

If Marvel hasn’t given the green light yet — Maison des Idées and Disney+ are in the midst of strategic changes — the platform will release the medium-length film in color this October 20.

A way to capture the attention of a new audience that was not seduced by black and white last year. And introduce Werewolf by Night to as many people as possible before announcing the characters arrival in the MCU? Everything is possible.
