"I just gned on for the sequel of Last Exorcism," Bell said to Bloody. "It's 'The Last Exorcism For Reales You Guys,'" she joked. "That's the full title."

Bell continued, "Whenever you get that phone call, that opportunity, it's incredible. I loved working with Strike Entertainment and Eli the first time around. To be able to work with them again, that’s what I'm most excited about. They’re an incredible company."

Bell will be repring the character of Nell Sweetzer, but she wouldn't lend out any additional information involving the character's "state." "I'm so excited," said Bell." I have not seen or heard anything so I don’t know what is going to go down." "I am sworn to secrecy. My life's now worth more than sharing any other details."

Agreed. She played the innocent girl so well. Warmed my heart. And then she turned it around and offered a 'blowing job.' Brilliant. My friends hate me for liking the film, but i say the ending doesn't ruin it at all. I would love to see some more Nell in a sequel.
