Our Take On Troll 2’s 2025 Release

The Sequel Should See Similar Success

With a returning writer, director, and cast members,Troll 2should see similar success when it releases on Netflix in 2025.The original movie certainly didn’t revolutionize the monster movie genreand was criticized for its predictable plot, cheesy dialogue, and inconsistent acting. However, it becameNetflix’s most-watched non-English movie, and the upcoming sequel offers a chance to continue what it did well by expanding on the original movie’s rich mythology, exciting action, and solid visual effects.

Trolls were often described as strong, evil and dangerous giants. They were ugly, with large noses and eyes “the size of plates”, and often had several heads or just one eye. Gods and humans were their enemies, and they were angered by the “smell of Christian blood”.
