It's been five years since Blumhouse's The Invisible Man bucked the odds and managed to become a smash-hit just as COVID was shutting down theaters in 2020. Despite the intervening years, star Elisabeth Moss says a sequel is still in the works - but there's a seriously high bar to clear in order to live up to the acclaimed original.

"We really want to make sure [that] if we do a sequel, it's worthy and it's going to have to be as good if not better," Moss tells ScreenRant. "So that's been kind of what's slowed us down. But I don't think that's a bad thing. I think if we're going to do it, it's got to be right. But we still want to do it. We're still working on it. We just have to get the right script together."

"I am so grateful to Universal and Blum for not doing that and for having a standard that's unusual in these circumstances and really wanting it to be worth doing. So it's an unusual thing, but that doesn't usually happen. But I feel like it's important. We love that movie so much. The people who made it – we're so proud of it."
