Megan Fox to reprise Jennifer Check as filming of 'Jennifer's Body 2' begins in October 2026

A sequel to the 2009 horror‑comedy "Jennifer's Body" has been confirmed. Director Karyn Kusama and Oscar‑winning screenwriter Diablo Cody are returning, and Megan Fox is set to reprise her role as the succubus Jennifer Check. Production reports indicate that principal photography is scheduled to start in October 2026 in Vancouver, Canada, with the working title "Jennifer's Body 2". While a final cast announcement has not been made, both Fox and original co‑star Amanda Seyfried are expected to return. The original film, which under‑performed at the box office, has since attained cult status and generated a dedicated fan base that has driven the sequel's development.

The project is being tracked by Production Weekly and has yet to receive an official statement from 20th Century Studios. The revival is being positioned as both a continuation of the original story and an update that reflects contemporary themes, according to comments from Cody and producer Mason Novick.
