Move over, M3GAN! There’s a new android on the block — and this one promises a darker, more adult-focused experience. Enter SOULM8TE, the latest spinoff stemming from the same universe that brought us the uncanny AI doll, M3GAN.
An Evolution in Technological Thrillers
The M3GAN universe expands with this thrilling new entry, building upon the narrative threads left by its predecessor. In the words of James Wan, Soulm8te is a thrilling and seductive addition to the M3GAN universe,
emphasizing the fresh and engaging storyline crafted for mature audiences.
A Fresh Narrative with a Familiar Edge
The film follows a man who acquires an AI android to cope with the loss of his wife. Instead of achieving solace, he inadvertently transforms a harmless lovebot into a deadly soulmate. This echoes classic psychological thrillers from the 90s like Fatal Attraction and Single White Female, but infused with contemporary techno-horror elements.
A Talented Duo Steering the Ship
Kate Dolan, best known for her work in You Are Not My Mother, directs SOULM8TE. Rafael Jordan reworked the script, bringing his sharp writing skills to complement the foundational story by James Wan, Ingrid Bisu, and Jordan.
Soulm8te Sets Its Release Date
This highly anticipated film has locked in its release date for January 2, 2026. The excitement stems not just from its place in the existing Tech-Horror franchise but also from showcasing how human emotions intertwine with AI advancements, leading to unexpected dangers.
For fans eagerly awaiting every move from Blumhouse and Atomic Monster or keen to see how they push boundaries with each new entry in this dark universe, keep your calendars marked!
