‘M3GAN 2.0’ Adds ‘Ahsoka’ Breakout Ivanna Sakhno To Star Alongside Allison Williams

If you’re facing a life-like murder doll with killer dance moves, it’s good to have a Force wielder on your side. Blumhouse and Atomic Monster’s M3GAN 2.0, a sequel to last year’s hit horror film, have set Ahsoka breakout Ivanna Sakhno to star alongside the returning Allison Williams.

Sakhno was one of the many highlights of Ahsoka‘s first season, playing the ruthless apprentice to former Jedi knight Baylan Skoll. She joins Allison Williams and Violet McGraw, who both survived M3GAN and are coming back for more.

Plot details on M3GAN 2.0 are being kept under wraps, but expect the AI robot companion to up the body count and maybe even the dance routines. The script is by Akela Cooper, who wrote the first film, and Gerard Johnstone who directed it. Johnstone is in talks to direct this one, as well.

M3GAN 2.0 hits theaters on May 16th 2025. [Deadline]
