What is A Simple Favor 2 about?

“In the film, we see the return of Stephanie Smothers and Emily Nelson as they head to the beautiful island of Capri, Italy, for Emily’s extravagant wedding to a rich Italian businessman. Along with the glamorous guests, expect murder and betrayal to RSVP for a wedding with more twists and turns than the road from the Marina Grande to the Capri town square.”

A Simple Favor 2 is directed by Paul Feig from a screenplay written by Jessica Sharzer, who both worked together in the first installment. It is produced by Feig and Laura Fischer, with Sharzer serving as an executive producer. The original film was based on Darcey Bell’s 2017 novel of the same name. It told the story of a mommy vlogger who tries to solve the disappearance of her new mysterious friend, only to discover that things aren’t exactly as they seem.
