The Boy 2 adds Owain Yeoman and Ralph Ineson


Katie Holmes finally has some adult playmates for The Boy 2. According to Deadline, Owain Yeoman (American Sniper) and Ralph Ineson (The Office UK) have officially joined the cast of the doll horror sequel.

The Boy 2 will revolve around “a young family, unaware of the terrifying history of the estate into which they move, where their young son soon makes an unsettling new friend, an eerily life-like doll he calls Brahms.”

Holmes is playing the family’s matriarch Liza, and Christopher Convery is playing her son Jude. Yeoman has been cast as Liza’s husband Sean, while Ineson has been cast as Joseph.

Genre fans will know Yeoman as Vartox from the Supergirl pilot and Terry Winter from The Belko Experiment, and Ineson as William in The Witch, Amycus Carrow in Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows: Part 2, and Rick in Ready Player One.

The original The Boy film starred The Walking Dead‘s Lauren Cohen as Greta Evans, an American nanny to a rich English couple that treats a life-sized doll (the very same Brahms) as if it were their own human son. Following a series of disturbing events, Greta starts to believe that the doll is actually alive. It was directed by William Brent Bell, written by Stacey Menear, and starred Rupert Evans, James Russell, Jim Norton and Diana Hardcastle.

Bell will return to direct the sequel, with principle photography set to begin in Victoria, British Columbia, in January next year. Menear will also once again be writing the script. Lakeshore’s Tom Rosenberg, Gary Lucchesi and Eric Reid will produce alongside Matt Berenson, Jim Wedaa and Roy Lee.

Lucchesi said: “Following the success of The Boy, we are thrilled to be working on the next chapter of this chilling Brahms story with Stacey and William. We are also delighted to be continuing our relationship with STX, on this, our third partnership.”
