Netflix has revealed the release date for The Platform 2 in an eerie first trailer.

The surprise follow-up to the hit 2020 sci-fi, which is set in a prison system where inmates are fed through a descending platform, was announced last year.

The streamer has now confirmed that the sequel will hit their platform later this year on October 4.

In the creepy first trailer, we get a taste of what to expect, including food falling through a hole, as well as terrifying shots of people with blood coming out of their mouths and a person on fire.

"What are you looking for in The Hole?" one character asks, another replying: "Time."

The Platform 2's full synopsis reads: "As a mysterious leader imposes their rule in the Platform, a new resident becomes embroiled in the battle against this controversial method to fight the brutal feeding system.

"But when eating from the wrong plate becomes a death sentence, how far would you be willing to go to save your life?"

The movie is set to star The Snow Girl's Milena Smit, Money Heist's Hovik Keuchkerian, Game of Thrones' Natalia Tena and Luis Miguel: The Series' Óscar Jaenada, while The Platform's director Galder Gaztelu-Urrutia returning to helm the sequel.

The director spoke to Digital Spy in 2020 about the first movie's ambiguous ending, explaining: "We actually did film a different ending of the girl arriving at the first level, but we took it out of the movie.

"I'll leave what happens to your imagination."

The Platform 2 will premiere on Netflix on October 4, 2024. The first movie is available to watch now.
