<p>&#8220;<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/sound-of-freedom-to-be-played-on-hundreds-of-additional-screens-in-4th-week-of-release" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sound of Freedom</a>&#8221; writer-director Alejandro Monteverde opened up about the possibility of a sequel to the hit that has become the highest-grossing indie film since 2019&#8217;s &#8220;Parasite.&#8221;</p>
<p>The movie, which deals with the horrors of human trafficking, has earned more than $170 million at the <a href="https://www.boxofficemojo.com/release/rl4254237441/?ref_=bo_hm_rd" target="_blank" rel="noopener">box office</a> as of Monday. According to Variety, Monteverde said there are already talks about a follow-up.</p>
<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s definitely a lot of interest to exploring [the subject] a little deeper, because this is just the tip of the iceberg,&#8221; the director told the outlet in a wide-ranging interview.</p>
<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s a lot of interest to kind of explore Haiti, what&#8217;s happening in Haiti,&#8221; he added. &#8220;There&#8217;s [sequel] talks focusing on Haiti.&#8221;</p>
<p>Monteverde admitted going into opening weekend, he said he thought it would be great if the movie earned $5 million.</p>
<p>&#8220;I will be really happy with that,&#8217; he said. &#8220;$14 million I thought for the whole run.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;Sound of Freedom,&#8221; based on a true story, comes from Angel Studios, the same studio responsible for the popular faith-based television series, &#8220;The Chosen.&#8221; Actor Jim Caviezel portrays Tim Ballard, a federal agent who quits his job and embarks on a dangerous mission to rescue a young girl from sex slavery in South America.</p>

<p>The director said, &#8220;Haiti was a big part of Tim [Ballard&#8217;s] work. I was very tempted to do Haiti on this film. But I wanted to do an origin story, and it was too much material. I needed to end where I ended.&#8221;</p>
