Exclusive Wes Ball Featurette for Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials

Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials featurette with director Wes Ball

After The Maze Runner earned an impressive $340.8 million at the worldwide box office in 2014, director Wes Ball returned for Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials, which is set to take over the box office on September 18. For a sneak peek at what you can expect, 20th Century Fox has provided ComingSoon.net with an exclusive behind-the-scenes featurette in which Ball talks about the highly-anticipated sequel.

Starring Dylan O’Brien, Thomas Brodie-Sangster, Kaya Scodelario, Will Poulter, Patricia Clarkson, Rosa Salazar, Aidan Gillen, Ki Hong Lee and Giancarlo Esposito, The Scorch Trials adapts James Dashner’s second book in “The Maze Runner” series, following Thomas and the other Gladers as they have escaped the maze and are put into a dormitory where they face new threats.

Solving the Maze was supposed to be the end. Thomas was sure that escape from the Maze would mean freedom for him and the Gladers. But WICKED isn’t done yet. Phase Two has just begun. The Scorch. There are no rules. There is no help. You either make it or you die. The Gladers have two weeks to cross through the Scorch—the most burned-out section of the world. And WICKED has made sure to adjust the variables and stack the odds against them. Friendships will be tested. Loyalties will be broken. All bets are off. There are others now. Their survival depends on the Gladers’ destruction—and they’re determined to survive.

Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials will open in 3D, 2D, and IMAX theaters.
