His wife Alice (Dawn Steele) bears all this with pragmatic Scottish fortitude, but she's hardly a blazing comet of charisma streaking across the screen. This is baffling, because he's permanently grouchy, sullen and stressed-out, and even under blazing African skies he seems to tow a private black cloud around with him wherever he goes.

Evidently Stephen Tompkinson, playing Bristol vet Danny Trevanion who has transplanted himself to the Leopard's Den game reserve in South Africa, has a loyal legion of fans. While he did write a follow-on novel, 2020’s Malorie, named after the main character of Bird Box, the streaming service decided not to pick up on it.
It comes as Josh Malerman – the author behind the novel of the same name – announced back in 2019 that he was writing a sequel, thanks to the success of Netflix’s adaptation. Upon its release, the post-apocalyptic film was a major hit with fans – and ever since, many have been calling for a second instalment.įive years later, it looks as if the wait is finally over (well, kind of).
Starring major names like Sandra Bullock, Sarah Paulson, John Malkovich and even Machine Gun Kelly, the movie followed a young mother, Malorie Hayes (Sandra) as she tried to protect herself and her two kids from a mysterious entity that caused all those who looked at it to kill themselves. Back in 2018, Netflix dropped one of the most nail-biting, spine-tingling films of the year: Bird Box.
