No official plot details have been confirmed but Edgerton did tease the plot in broad strokes in a Yahoo interview in February 2019:ĭirector David Ayer will return to direct Bright 2. Over the course of the night, Ward and Jakoby must protect an elf named Tikka (Lucy Fry) while also fending off the magical gangs who want the powerful wand for themselves. In the end, Ward and Jakoby stop the Dark Lord, hide the wand's whereabouts and earn official commendations for their bravery and remain partners while Tikka slips off.īright 2's story is expected to pick up where Bright left off while also going deeper into the magic and lore introduced in the first film. Things go from standard to intense really quickly when they respond to a disturbance at a safe house for a magical extremist group known as the Shield of Light, putting them in the middle of a battle with the Inferni, who are attempting to bring about the return of the Dark Lord. Despite the critical trepidation, it was reported Bright received over 11 million views during its first three days on Netflix, acting as a show of support for the film's stars, Smith and Edgerton, as well as the story being told.īright's story begins on the day seasoned LAPD officer Daryl Ward (Smith) is paired with the division's first orc recruit, Nick Jakoby (Edgerton) and is tasked with training him - much to his chagrin. Reviews pointed out the film shied away from dealing with the implications of racism and unsavory social stratification that came with magical creatures living with humans while also failing to present any new or interesting ideas about the magical lore it was introducing.

While they’re ultimately proven wrong because Superman really is humanity’s greatest champion, Brightburn-aka Brandon Breyer-is the personification of everything the two feared.īrightburn essentially validates Batman’s fear in the “one percent chance” that Superman may turn evil, while also proving Luthor’s hypothesis that demons don’t come from below, but from above to be true.Ī potential sequel to this movie may delve deeper into this concept, with Brandon possibly declaring himself a god among men to rule mankind, or it could double down on his being a destructive force of evil. An interesting if poorly developed theme in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice was the distrust in super-powered beings from another world that Batman and Lex Luthor shared. ![]()
