The film was intended to be the first in a trilogy. A second movie was released as Day Watch (2006). A third movie, titled Twilight Watch, was announced as the first English film in the series, but director Timur Bekmambetov left Russia to make Wanted (2008) first. He later said that Wanted had become how he had envisioned Twilight Watch, so he had no immediate plans to start working on the film. The project has since been shelved.
