In 2023, a comedic horror about an AI doll resembling a young girl became a viral hit. After three years, M3GAN has returned to the cinema – just as wide-eyed and bloodthirsty as before.

In the new instalment of the series, the doll gets a second chance to prove that she’s a trustworthy caregiver, as she was designed to be. When the technology used to build M3GAN is stolen, AMELIA, a humanoid military robot, is brought to life. Self-aware and dangerous, she sets off to kill a certain billionaire. The only one who can stop her is M3GAN, now trapped by scientist Gemma (Allison Williams) in a small robotic doll. After receiving an upgraded body, the android is ready to confront AMELIA.

The cinema is the best place to find out what will happen with M3GAN and the people who once trusted her. However, if you want to know when the film will be released on home media, keep reading this article.

At the opening weekend, the movie grossed only $17 million worldwide, which is below the predicted numbers. By rushing the M3GAN 2.0 VOD release, Universal may be looking to recoup its financial losses.
