The trailer opens with Robert, now seemingly successful and settled, yet visibly uneasy. He’s with his new fiancée, but his happiness appears marred by shadows of past regrets. He begins receiving strange messages and finds chilling reminders of Melinda in places only he would know. Meanwhile, his fiancée starts uncovering shocking details about Melinda’s last days, leading her to question Robert’s version of events and his role in their tumultuous relationship.
As Robert delves into the mystery of these strange occurrences, he finds out that Melinda left behind a series of journal entries and video recordings, detailing her own dark thoughts, resentments, and her elaborate, vengeful plans should he ever betray her. The recordings imply that she might have had an accomplice in ensuring her revenge lives on beyond her death, making Robert spiral into paranoia, questioning everyone around him, even his own mental stability.

By the end of the trailer, Robert’s career, love life, and sanity are in free fall, as he tries to uncover the truth behind the mysterious events he’s facing. Acrimony 2 promises another dark exploration of love, betrayal, and the devastating power of unresolved hatred, leaving audiences to wonder whether Robert’s fate is a product of his own mind or Melinda’s revenge reaching from the grave.
