Lukas Gage said in his statement,

'The scenes in Smile 2 are intense and shocking. That's acting; you think nothing will happen, but the film is really creepy. We were all shocked as a team. The smile itself is bad, and so are the other bloody scenes... Unfortunately, I have a weak stomach and I'm a bit of a wimp. So, the scenes affected me a lot.'
