Escape Room 2 Gets Official Rating
✖
Escape Room 2 is actually about to be released, as the film has earned a PG-13 rating, confirming that the production is locked. This rating also confirms that, much like the debut film, the sequel will explore macabre subject matter, though won't be as gory or gruesome as its contemporaries, as its rating is due to "violence, terror/peril, and strong language." Despite recently having a release date of next January, the sequel was moved up by six months just weeks ago and is now slated to hit theaters on July 16th.
In the original film, an intriguing invitation bring six strangers together. Initially, they think they have gathered for a highly immersive escape room, but they soon make the sickening discovery that they are pawns in a sadistic game of life and death. Together, they move from one terrifying scenario to the next as they find clues and solve puzzles. But the players soon learn that exposing their darkest secrets may hold the key to survive.
