Bird Box was without a doubt one of Netflix’s most successful films in 2018. The film, which was based on Josh Malerman’s book, followed Malorie as she attempts to find a haven for herself and her two children in a world where strange monsters can make you kill yourself just by looking at them.
Following the success of the Bird Box film adaptation, Malerman published a sequel to his book. Malorie is the title of the book that follows the woman following the events of the first novel and finds her and her children in a different place where her parents may have been living all along. In July of 2020, the book will be published.
