Although the story picks up where the last film left off, all but two of the lead roles were recast.

In contrast to its predecessor, which was a box office success anddespite marginallybeing wellpoorly received, ''Annihilation'' was criticallyuniversally panned and underperformedbombed at the box office. As a result, development of a planned sequel to the film was halted and never progressed beyond pre-production.
