Upgraded 2
Netflix seems to have outdone itself this year with multiple Valentine’s Day releases that have diverse stories. Well, say hello to Upgraded which is a cute rom-com by Carlson Young who is an actress known for shows like Scream in which she played Brooke, As the Bell Rings and Key & Peele.
This Amazon Prime Original is a fun rom-com which follows Ana, an intern who does all she can to keep her boss happy. That is till she runs into a handsome client who thinks that she is the boss. It stars Camila Mendes of Riverdale fame as the ambitious Ana and Archie Renaux from Shadow and Bone as the charming William along with some familiar faces like Marisa Tomei, Lena Olin, Saoirse-Monica Jackson and Anthony Head.
Well, if you have seen it, like every other viewer, you may be looking for its sequel. But will there be an Upgraded 2? Or is there little chance of a follow-up film? Here’s what we know at the time of writing.
Please note: this article contains spoilers about the film’s ending!
What is Upgraded about?
Upgraded is a hilarious rom-com which is all about a relationship that teeters on the verge of ending all because of a small lie. The intern Ana does her best at Erwins, an art gallery but no matter what, she is unable to make her boss, Claire happy. But she keeps a smile on her face and does her best as she dreams of opening her own gallery one day. Things seem to be looking up when Claire allows Ana to go on a work trip to London.
And as luck would have it, the staff decides to upgrade Ana to first class where she meets the charming Will. So, of course, while chatting him up, she pretends that she is Claire to impress him. Soon things go out of control when she realises that he is actually related to a client, Erwins wants his family’s painting collection.
Will there be an Upgraded 2?
At the time of writing, a sequel to Upgraded has not been announced.
Amazon Prime picks up projects they have helmed and distributed and announces sequels depending on the popularity, views and drop-off rates. So, if Upgraded does well on Prime Video, we could maybe get a sequel. But it is unlikely at the moment.
What could happen in Upgraded 2?
Not much is known since a sequel has not been announced. Upgraded also technically ends on a definite note. After the lies, misunderstandings and chaos pour out and subside, the movie ends happily with Ana launching her own art gallery. She still has hopes for Will whom she has invited but he never shows up. However, after everyone’s left, right before the movie ends, he shows up and they get together.
Though, if we do get a sequel, it could maybe look into the aftermath of Ana and Will as a couple now that he knows the truth about her. It could also delve into how Ana manages her own gallery and juggles it with her love life.
Of course, this is all speculation as there has been no official news regarding a second movie. Keep an eye out for this section as we will update readers if there is any news.
