'Bird Box' sequel 'Malorie' in the works as author Josh Malerman says he 'wants to know what comes next'

The author of 'Bird Box' Josh Malerman shared that it was all the unresolved and unanswered questions in the film that drove him to take up writing a sequel titled 'Malorie'

'Bird Box' is going to get a sequel along with a follow-up novel which is titled 'Malorie'. The author of 'Bird Box', Josh Malerman, admitted on Monday that the drama's unresolved and unanswered questions had made him want to write a sequel. 

The 43-year-old told Esquire, "At the end of the movie, I turned to my girl Allison and said, 'I want to know what happens next!' and she's like, 'Well, you know, you could make that happen', so it really was this warm feeling. They've left there. [It's] similar in that they're trying to make things work. It's not like it opens with them in paradise." The Netflix show is based on Josh's 2014 novel 'Bird Box'.
