And that unfettered pipeline from page to screen means that his brand of chaos is on full display, for both good and ill. For while it’s certainly packing some laughs (and even manages to find nuance in several characters), it can’t always keep things on track.

Cole And Bee Had A Close Friendship

At the end of The Babysitter, Bee is given the chance to let Allison (Bella Thorne) kill Cole or save him. She chose to save him by killing Allison. The film ends with it unclear if Bee genuinely cares about Cole, or only faked an emotional attachment to manipulate him. In The Babysitter: Killer Queen, If Bee makes an appearance, we’ll probably learn whether or not she truly cares for Cole, or if he was just another child to bleed dry.

In 2017, Netflix released The Babysitter, a horror-comedy about a boy who finds out his favorite babysitter isn’t exactly as sweet and innocent as she seems. The film quickly turns to a battle of survival for Cole (Judah Lewis), as he has to combat one dangerous teen after another. Now Netflix is bringing us The Babysitter 2, entitled The Babysitter: Killer Queen.

Warning: Spoilers ahead. I’ll be discussing major plot points from The Babysitter and confirmed info about The Babysitter: Killer Queen.

Is Samara Weaving returning?

Sadly, all the evidence would suggest that Samara Weaving won’t be returning to reprise her role as Bee in The Babysitter: Killer Queen. We’re also not sure if Bee will be returning in the sequel, but there’s every chance that a new actress may have been cast in the role, such as Jenna Ortega whose role has yet to be disclosed.

It’ll be a shame that Samara Weaving won’t be returning, but perhaps if a third film could be in line for the future, we may see her return.
