"Blindfold Your Eyes" poster
As one of Netflix's most successful films, "Blindfold Your Eyes" is loved by users. A few days ago, Netflix announced that it will make a spin-off movie for the film. Together with the planned sequels, these films will construct the Blindfold Universe.
The original film's producers, Dylan Clark and Chris Morgan, returned to the crew to continue as producers. The choreographers David Pasteur and Alex Post will write the screenplay and direct the film. The original film takes place in the post-apocalyptic era and tells the story of a mysterious force that wants to annihilate humanity, and there is only one rule: if you see it, you will give your life. In the face of all the unknowns, Melali is looking for love and hope, as well as a new turning point that can disintegrate this force. She had no choice but to take her two children across the dangerous river and flee to the only place where it was possible to take refuge. To survive, they must be blindfolded and embark on a dangerous journey that lasts two days. Because of the "Silent Place" pearl in front, many people regard "Blindfold Your Eyes" as a crash or even follow the trend. But the film is not just about replacing "can't speak out" with "can't open your eyes".

In 2018, "Blindfold Your Eyes" was launched on Netflix, and a week after the film was launched, more than 45 million subscribers watched the film, which was one of Netflix's most successful films at that time. The film was directed by Suzanne Bill, director of the Oscar-winning foreign-language film Better World, and Rosa Salazar and John Markovich, who will appear in Alita: Battle Angel, played important roles in the film.
At present, there is no specific filming and release schedule for the "Blindfold Your Eyes" sequel, and the planned sequel takes place 12 years after the original story, and the perspective will continue to follow Melali and her children wandering on the river. In terms of time clues, the sequel story inherits the original film.
