Known for their dynamic and absurd videos like Harry Potter vs. Star Wars and Marvel vs. DC (Avengers Battle), they effortlessly transitioned from YouTube to the film industry. The film received overwhelming praise at various festivals, including the Sundance International Film Festival and the Fantasia International Film Festival.

Following its successful run at Sundance, A24 acquired the distribution rights for Talk to Me in the United States.

Due to its remarkable success, A24 has already approved a sequel for the movie, although specific details are being kept confidential. Additionally, the Philippou brothers have confirmed the completion of filming a prequel to Talk to Me, which delves into the origins of the film's opening scene.
