Fan CastingThe Mitchells vs. the Machines 2: Reconnted (2025)

Six months after PAL's defeat in the first film, the technology uprising that she caused has ended and the Mitchell family has been hailed heroes for saving everyone from the PAL Max robots that she controlled. Since then, they've all been doing different things with their lives: Katie has become a student at the California College of Film, Rick is getting more comfortable around computers, Linda has become best friends with the Mitchells' neighbor Hailey Posey, and Aaron has begun hanging out with and dating Hailey and her husband Jim's daughter Abbey, of whom he shares his love of dinosaurs with. It's also the middle of May, and is leaning towards the end of the school year. As such, Katie and her new classmate and girlfriend Jade are coming home for the weekend, where Katie hopes to introduce Jade to her family. While taking a drive back to the Mitchells' house in Kentwood, Michigan, Katie and Jade crash the former's car into a tree, and find an underground laboratory called "XL (Extra Large) Labs", where several humanoid artificially intelligent robots called "XL-22"'s are being created under the orders of Kentwood mayor Josephine J. Swason, who hopes to start an artificial takeover on the world and become an unstoppable force of evil. The Mitchells will have to confront Mayor Swason herself and prevent the artificial takeover from happening before every part of the world gets swarming with artificially intelligent robots.
