Do Revenge was released on Sept. 16, and it’s arguably the best Netflix teen movie to come out this summer. It’s a pretty short film, so chances are you’ve already watched it. Now, you’re probably wondering if a sequel is in the works at Netflix. Luckily, you’ve landed at the right place because we shared all there is to know about a potential Do Revenge 2.

Joining Mendes and Hawke in the cast are Austin Abrams, Alisha Boe, Jonathan Daviss, Talia Ryder, Paris Berelc, Maia Reficco, Rish Shah, Sophie Turner, Eliza Bennett, and Ava Capri.
Someone Great creator Jennifer Kaytin Robinson teamed up with her writing partner Celeste Ballard to make the film. Robinson directed and co-wrote the screenplay with Ballard. Additionally, Likely Story produced the film.
So, should we be expecting a sequel to arrive on Netflix in the future? Here’s everything we know about a Do Revenge 2.
Spoilers from Do Revenge ahead!
Is Do Revenge 2 happening?
Netflix has not announced if there will be a sequel. This isn’t unusual because Do Revenge just came out on Sept. 16. Netflix has to see how many people watched the film (from beginning to end) over a certain period of time before making a decision. In fact, it’s very important that people watch the movie in the first 28 days of its release. This is when Netflix tallies up the viewership numbers. If a good amount of people watch Do Revenge, this betters the film’s chances of getting a sequel. However, other factors also play a part in Netflix’s decision-making process, such as production costs and if there’s more story to tell.
We don’t think production costs will be a problem because the first film’s budget was reportedly $10 million, which is significantly lower than how much a Netflix movie typically costs to make. If there were to be a Do Revenge 2, it would most likely have a similar budget. But what would be the plot for a sequel?
In Do Revenge‘s case, the film wrapped up neatly. Drea and Eleanor get their revenge on Max and end up with their love interests (Drea with Russ and Eleanor with Gabbi). So a sequel wouldn’t really be necessary. However, it’s worth mentioning that the writers could always come up with new ideas for a sequel if Netflix gives the go-ahead. But if you’re asking for our opinion on the chances of a Do Revenge 2, our answer is slim to none. We believe this is a one-and-done type of movie.
Still, we’ll let you know if Netflix decides to go through with a sequel. But for now, expect there to be only one film.
