Paramount Pictures began development of a sequel in April 2018, following the box-office and critical success of the first film. By the following August, Krasinski was working on the screenplay, and in February 2019, he was confirmed as returning to direct. Production took place in Western New York from June to September 2019. Krasinski was credited with writing the sequel, based on characters created by Bryan Woods and Scott Beck. The sequel was produced on a budget of $55–61 million, over three times the original's $17 million.
