Netflix confirms ‘Troll 2’ sequel with new monster threat. Here’s what to expect

Netflix has officially announced Troll 2, the much-anticipated sequel to its 2022 Norwegian hit Troll. Set to premiere on December 1, the film brings back the original creative team—director Roar Uthaug, writer Espen Aukan, and producers Espen Horn and Kristian Strand Sinkerud—along with returning cast members Ine Marie Wilmann, Kim Falck, and Mads Sjøgård Pettersen, who are joined by Sara Khorami in this next chapter of the epic monster saga.

This time, a deadlier and more destructive troll awakens, unleashing widespread chaos across Norway. As the country teeters on the edge of catastrophe, Nora, Andreas, and Captain Kris must embark on their most dangerous mission yet. To stop the rampage, they’ll forge unexpected alliances, arm themselves with new weapons, and dig deep into Norway’s ancient folklore and Norse history for clues to defeat the monstrous force.

On the bigger, bolder sequel Uthaug told Variety, “We’re aiming high — expanding the scope, deepening the story, and creating a troll-sized spectacle like you’ve never seen before.”


“Expect new and even more destructive trolls— plural — and a deeper dive into Nordic mythology. Familiar faces return, but not necessarily where you'd expect them.”

The original Troll remains Netflix’s most-watched non-English language film of all time, racking up over 103 million views. With Troll 2, the stakes—and the trolls—are even bigger.

Troll 2 arrives December 1 with returning heroes, new allies, and a terrifying new threat. Expect more trolls, more mythology, and more destruction as Netflix ups the ante in its monster franchise.
