A digi-tech and internet-driven “device thriller” from the #Searching team is a follow-up on the sub-genre but not truly a sequel.
Missing opens with a video clip that shows the “last family vacation” of June Allen (played as an adult by Storm Reid) and her parents, Grace (Nia Long) and James (Tim Griffin). Following that, James dies of cancer, and Grace is left to raise her daughter on her own. In the present, we learn that Grace and her current beau, Kevin (Ken Leung), are headed for a vacation in Colombia. And then Grace doesn’t come back home on the appointed date.
