We were treated to some official headlines for the upcoming sequel, Ready or Not 2: Here I Come, which is also the official title. First, promotional images appeared, and the one featuring Elijah’s is a knockout! He portrays The Lawyer to the Le Domas family, as shown in this teaser and in the official extended trailer. That trailer is Searchlight Pictures’ biggest launch in its history, garnering millions of views on its first day.

But ignore the theatrical release date. They have pushed it up by two weeks to March 27th. 

The 16th and final convention of the year took place in Tokyo at the start of December. It was quite a gathering, with many of Elijah’s co-stars from other productions taking the stage together. Click here to view the images from the convention’s activities.

There are videos of the opening ceremony, Elijah and Sean’s panel discussion, and the closing ceremony.

It’s a very difficult incident to report on, but we all know about the tragedy involving Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele. It was a blow to the world and the entire industry, and Elijah sent his heartfelt condolences. “Horrified to hear of the passing of Rob Reiner and his wonderful wife Michelle. So much love to their kids and family.”

Guess what trilogy is coming back to theaters in a few weeks? As The Fellowship of the Ring celebrates its 25th anniversary of being released, all three extended versions of The Lord of the Rings will be in theaters.

To coincide with the first Hobbit reunion of the year in New Orleans, Wooden Wisdom will be rockin’ their vinyl set at Republic NOLA on January 10th, and tickets are on sale now! 

December had its share of ups and downs, especially when it came to producing my year-end video. But after the setbacks I encountered, the final Video of the Month of 2025 showcases what a fantastic and exciting year Elijah had. You can click on the graphic below to watch directly on YouTube.
