Escape Room asserted to be a surprise hit at the box office in 2019, and then Escape Room 2 is on its direction to play at a higher level with viewers in 2020. Although the premise was rather creative, it’s fair to say that not enough people expected how much success the Escape Room would end up being.
Horror fans were particularly cautious about the film, mainly because of concerns that its PG-13 rating would hold Escape Room back from delivering the ghoulish chaos and destruction of past horror efforts to escape traps like Saw and Cube.

As these issues are sometimes borne out, Escape Room still turned out to be a fun time in films, albeit perhaps a little longer for its good in 100 minutes. Fortunately, the titular rooms were marvels of production design and construction, leading to tense, intellectually engaging sequences in which characters raced against the clock to understand and fix different puzzles before one or more of them ended up dead.
Escape Room 2 Release Date
Escape Room 2 was first expected to start its debut in cinemas in the United States on April 17, 2020, a little over 15 months after the first film arrived on January 4, 2019, before this was moved to August. However, that date was subsequently postponed due to the general state of the world.
Instead, the movie will appear united State theatres on January 1, 2021. Escape Room 2 will be in theatres in the United Kingdom on 29 January 2021.
Escape Room 2 Cast
Well, the first film didn’t just leave too many characters alive for the sequel to come back.
Of the six unlucky souls who had reached the escape room, only two had left it alive: shy student Zoey (Taylor Russell) and grocery worker Ben (Logan Miller). The official casting official statement reported the expected return of Russell and Miller and will be joined by Pose star Indya Moore, Teen Wolf’s Holland Roden, Orphan’s Isabelle Fuhrman, Carlito Olivero, and Thomas Cocquerel.
Don’t expect any returns from Daredevil’s Deborah Ann Woll or Reaper’s Tyler Labine, unless it’s somehow disclosed that they didn’t die in the escape room and managed to survive.

Escape Room 2 Story
So in the first film, it was revealed that the six players were selected since they’re the only survivors of multiple incidents, along with a plane crash and a carbon monoxide seep.
Sony is still yet to reveal single storyline information for Escape Room 2, continuing to keep the sequel plot and the characters close to the vest. So in the first film, it was revealed that the six players were selected since they’re the only survivors of multiple incidents, along with a plane crash and a carbon monoxide seep. As stated above, however, the first Escape Room ended with an evident sequel, with Zoey and Ben venturing to New York City to further start investigating the mysterious forces behind the game. It was completely obvious that the puzzle master of the game wasn’t fully completed with them either, and one assumes that the sequel will pick up right from where the first film came to an end.
Escape Room 2 trailer!
There’s no trailer yet released and as the release date of the movie is postponed to next year we are likely to wait for the trailer anyway.
