Director: Michael Chaves

A murdered priest in a quiet French village pulls Sister Irene back into the shadow of the demon Valak, this time hunting through a boarding school where nothing stays hidden for long.

What is The Nun II about?

The year is 1956, and the setting shifts to rural France, where a clergyman's violent death sets off an investigation that lands squarely in Irene's lap. Michael Chaves directs this follow-up, again pairing Taissa Farmiga's novice with Jonas Bloquet's Maurice, whose past brush with possession has left him more entangled in the horror than either of them would like. As the pair follow a trail of scorched church records and unexplained deaths, they land at an all-girls school where a new group of characters, including Storm Reid and Anna Popplewell, become caught in the widening circle of dread. Bonnie Aarons returns beneath the nun's veil, her presence turning ordinary hallways and wine cellars into places worth dreading. The film leans on candlelit corridors, half-seen figures, and a slow tightening of dread rather than one single jump scare, building toward a confrontation that ties back to the demon's older, half-buried history.

Cast & crew

Taissa Farmiga anchors the sequel with the same quiet resolve that defined her first outing, while Jonas Bloquet gives Maurice a heavier, more haunted edge. Storm Reid and Anna Popplewell bring fresh energy to the school setting, and Bonnie Aarons remains the film's most unsettling constant as the entity terrorizing them all.

Context & significance

The Nun II arrives as part of the long-running Conjuring universe, threading its 1950s French setting into the timeline that eventually connects to the original Conjuring films set decades later. Director Michael Chaves, who also helmed The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It, keeps the visual language consistent with the wider franchise, favoring practical dread over gore.
