A follow-up to 2018's The Nun (itself a prequel to The Conjuring movies), the film picks up with Sister Irene (Taissa Farmiga) as she seeks to destroy Valak (Bonnie Aarons), chasing the demon across Europe.

What to Read Next

The film has received strong reviews, with several critics saying that it improves on the 2018 instalment.

Meanwhile, director Michael Chaves has recently explained how The Nun and The Conjuring films are linked after fans believed they had spotted a potential plot hole regarding the fate of Frenchie/Maurice (Jonas Bloquet).

"There's a moment at the end of the movie where — well, there's a couple of moments; there's a mid-credit that might tease something," he told Collider.

"Obviously, in the timeline of The Conjuring, we think he's saved at the end of this movie, but we know that later on, he is possessed... Now, Valak either gets back into him or Valak might still be in there, and I think that's really open to interpretation."

The Nun 2 is out now in cinemas.
