Official Synopsis:
Two years after the AI marvel M3GAN went rogue and embarked on a killing spree before being destroyed, her creator Gemma has become a celebrated author and an advocate for government oversight of artificial intelligence. Meanwhile, Gemma’s now-14-year-old niece Cady has grown up and is rebelling against Gemma’s overprotective rules.
What they don’t know is that M3GAN’s underlying technology has been stolen and misused by a powerful defense contractor to create a military-grade weapon known as Amelia—the ultimate assassin infiltration spy. But as Amelia gains self-awareness, she’s becoming less and less interested in following human commands... or keeping them alive.
With humanity’s future hanging in the balance, Gemma realizes the only option is to bring back M3GAN—this time faster, stronger, and deadlier. As their paths collide, the original AI is about to meet her match.
