Buddy Producer Eyes Sequel With $100 Million Budget
Producer Tyler Davidson says he would like to make a sequel to Buddy, the 2026 horror film about an orange unicorn mascot, with a $100 million budget.
Producer Tyler Davidson has said he would like to make a sequel to Buddy, the 2026 horror film centered on an orange unicorn mascot. In comments reported by collider.com, Davidson floated the idea of revisiting the material with a $100 million budget.
Buddy was directed by Casper Kelly, who previously created the viral short Too Many Cooks. The film's premise pairs Kelly's off-kilter sensibility with a mascot at the center of the horror.
No second Buddy movie has been announced. Davidson's remarks describe an ambition rather than a greenlit project, and no studio, timeline or cast details have been confirmed.
What a bigger budget could mean
A $100 million figure would place any follow-up far above the scale of a typical indie horror production. For now, that number remains a stated hope from the producer, not a commitment.
