MUMBAI: Following the massive success of the horror-thriller movie The Purge, producer Jason Blum and Universal Studios have announced they are planning a sequel for the movie.

However, who would helm the director‘s chair for the sequel and the cast remains uncertain.
 
The Purge was written and directed by James DeMonaco, but his association with the sequel in the same capacity remains unclear as reported by the Hollywood Reporter.
 
The home invasion horror movie starring Ethan Hawke and Lena Headey with a budget of not over three million dollars, raked in a whopping $36.4 million in its opening weekend grossing to the top over the weekend.
 
While the movie‘s end is left with a potential for a sequel considering the story which is set in a society where once a year, there‘s a 12-hour period when all crime is allowed and condoned.
