Overview
- In mid-October, Navarrette told The Hollywood Reporter she would “totally” be open to returning as Nikki and said the character would likely be beginning a grief process after the first film.
- Director Curry Barker has publicly discussed either a direct Obsession 2 or an anthology of wish-driven stories and has finished his next film, Anything But Ghosts, which has drawn early praise from Seth Rogen.
- Timing for any follow-up is unresolved because Navarrette is contracted to play Rogue in Marvel’s X‑Men reboot and Barker is promoting Anything But Ghosts and has other projects on his slate.
- Obsession’s breakout status — made for under $1 million and reported to have grossed roughly $520–$522 million worldwide — and its cultural footprint have created strong commercial incentives to expand the property.
- The most concrete next steps to watch are whether studios formally greenlight a sequel or anthology and how the production schedules for Barker and Navarrette align with any announced plans.
