Collage of Annabelle, M3GAN, and The Nun
Summary M3GAN’s tantalizing plans for a spinoff movie called SOULM8TE could be setting up a cinematic universe to rival the highest-grossing horror franchise of all time. Last year, M3GAN arrived as a surprise hit when its novel high-concept premise and delightfully campy tone struck a chord with audiences.
M3GAN's New Spinoff Puts A Fresh Spin On The Story's Premise SOULM8TE is about a robot filling a romantic role, not a parental role Close Scheduled to be released on January 2, 2026, SOULM8TE will be directed by You Are Not My Mother’s Kate Dolan, who’s rewriting an initial script draft by Rafael Jordan.
While the Annabelle and The Nun series have been dependable moneymakers so far, they’re let down by their cliché-ridden scripts and focus on characters who can’t sustain their own movie. Eventually, just like with the MCU, audiences will stop turning up for the same old Conjuring Universe content.
Obviously, it all depends on the success of SOULM8TE. If SOULM8TE bombs at the box office, then there won’t be much hope for M4ID or DOGS1TTER. But if it can capture the same campy fun as M3GAN, and use its horror story to explore the dangers of technology as effectively as M3GAN, then it should be just as successful. The M3GAN cinematic universe has the potential to be Chopping Mall meets Black Mirror.
