The missing person thriller Searching kicked off a new film franchise for Screen Gems when it debuted back in 2018. Its next installment, Missing, opens in theaters on January 20. Watch the first trailer for Missing exclusively here at IGN via the player above or the embed below.
Missing is written and directed by Will Merrick and Nick Johnson, from a story by Sev Ohanian & Aneesh Chaganty. That story promises twists and turns and shocking discoveries about those the hero thought she knew best.
"When her mother (Nia Long) disappears while on vacation in Colombia with her new boyfriend, June’s (Storm Reid) search for answers is hindered by international red tape. Stuck thousands of miles away in Los Angeles, June creatively uses all the latest technology at her fingertips to try and find her before it’s too late. But as she digs deeper, her digital sleuthing raises more questions than answers...and when June unravels secrets about her mom, she discovers that she never really knew her at all."
Given all the recent drama at Twitter and Meta, it’s possible Missing could end up featuring platforms that might be quite different by the time the film opens early next year.
The filmmakers are aware of how quickly the online landscape can change and how that, in turn, risks dating their film but they’re far from worried about that. Indeed, they seem intrigued by the notion.
“There was a lot of Facebook for instance, in the first one, and there's a lot less Facebook [in Missing],” Johnson observed. “You see the trajectory of what people were using, and what UI [user interfaces] looked like. It's really a neat time capsule.” Merrick added, “I really like how these movies are going to age. It's going to be really cool to see them in 10, 20 years. It's going to be fascinating.”
Speaking of technology and user interaction, Sony Pictures Entertainment is partnering with Community to give Missing viewers a chance to join in the investigation for June’s mom. Those who text Sony Pictures’ Community number – (310) 634-1918 – will receive exclusive clues and be able to engage with the characters.
