When I hit the end of 2019’s Escape Room, I wanted a sequel now, now, now. Not only did director Adam Robitel craft some exceptionally tense set pieces while bringing the escape room concept to screen, but he also started building the foundation of a fascinating evil operation via Minos Escape Rooms. That essentially left him with many promising routes to pursue in a sequel. You could opt for the anthology format and show us a new series of rooms with entirely different players, or you could go with what Robitel and co. wound up doing and continue Ben (Logan Miller) and Zoey’s (Taylor Russell) story.

In Escape Room: Tournament of Champions, Zoey is hellbent on stopping Minos from trapping anyone else in their deadly puzzles. With Ben by her side, she travels to New York to dig deeper into the mystery of this nefarious organization, but while there, they unknowingly walk right into another string of rooms, but this time, they’re playing with other Minos Escape Room survivors.

With the movie hitting theaters on Friday, July 16th, I got the chance to catch up with Robitel and revisit the development process behind the sequel. Hear all about it in this interview!
