Compulsive Liar 2 (French: Menteuse) is a Canadian comedy film, directed by Émile Gaudreault and released in 2025.[1]
A sequel to the 2019 film Compulsive Liar (Menteur), the film stars Anne-Élisabeth Bossé as Virginie Gauthier, a woman who frequently tells little white lies to preserve social peace and avoid hurting the feelings of the people in her life, but wakes up one day in a world where all of her lies have suddenly become the truth; she thus faces the challenge of fixing things with the help of her partner Phil (Antoine Bertrand), who luckily knows what to do because he went through it all before with his brother a few years ago.[2]
The cast also includes Véronique Le Flaguais, Catherine Chabot, Pierrette Robitaille, Luc Senay and Rémy Girard.[3]
The film opened theatrically on July 9, 2025.[4]
