Lulu Wilson Returning For Becky 2: The Wrath of Becky
Lulu Wilson is set to reprise her role as the titular character in Becky 2: The Wrath of Becky. The original horror-thriller saw Becky, a rebellious 13-year-old, trying to reconnect with her father Jeff (Community's Joel McHale) at his lakefront home. When a group of Neo-Nazi convicts escape their prison transport and take her family hostage, Becky goes to extreme and violent lengths to fend off the convicts. The Neo-Nazis are led by the ruthless Domenick, played surprisingly by comedian Kevin James, following his buddy Adam Sandler's lead in trying more dramatic roles.

The film finds Becky, having lived off the grid for two years, returning to society to take down Darryl (Scott) the leader of a fascist organization, on the eve of an organized attack he's orchestrating.
