for this list we’re looking at movies at
some actual stage of development or that
have been confirmed by a cast or crew
member this is Hollywood of course so
projects may eventually not make it and
titles naturally are tentative number 10
furia oh you people are so scared
a fourth installment in the Riddick
franchise isn’t exactly recent news it’s
been revealed for some time now that
furia will see Vin Diesel’s titular
character finding his home planet it’s
been rumored that this film may be an
r-rated origin story staying consistent
with how each of the earlier
installments in the Riddick franchise
possessed their own differentiable genre
in 2015 Vin Diesel revealed that writer
director David – we had begun penning
the sequel however updates have been
scarce of late and there’s currently no
specific release date planned
the Riddick franchise has a lot of
unanswered questions and fans will be
hungry to see how the sequel unfolds
instead of failure we wound up someplace
called knot number 9 macGruber – in 2010
a fan favorite Saturday Night Live
sketch came to the big screen created by
your Motoko knee of the Lonely Island
macGruber is itself a parody of the 80s
action show MacGyver though this spoof
was considered a commercial flop at the
box office
it has since reached cult status and
writer Will Forte has announced he’s
working on a script for a sequel I mean
it’s it’s a very rough early draft we
are trying to do it after helming pop
star never stopped never stopping
Taccone has established himself as a
go-to director of comedy feature films
and we look forward to seeing this one
everybody number eight Beetlejuice –
when Tim Burton’s Beetlejuice was
released in 1988 its stunned critics and
fans alike with its mix of absurd jokes
and expressionist horror featuring
Michael Keaton as the devious ghost
haunting a young Winona Ryder the
original became an instant comedy
classic after trying to get a sequel off
the ground in the early 90s with
Beetlejuice goes Hawaiian Burton became
distracted by making Batman Returns as
well as a cancelled Nic Cage Superman
movie fast forward 30 years and it looks
as if there’s still hope for Beetlejuice
– a script has been written and both
Keaton and writer have been rumored to
be reprising their roles however nothing
is set in stone could make my millennium
number 7 edge of tomorrow – live die
repeat and repeat when it was released
in 2014
edge of tomorrow may have surprised a
few with it’s overwhelming critical
response the sequel is in pre-production
and it turns out the only reason it
hasn’t arrived on a cinema screen sooner
is because the stars are just too busy
with Tom Cruise immersed in the Mission
Impossible sequel and Emily Blunt
occupied with one of 2018 s best horrors
a quiet place while the first edge of
tomorrow was praised for its special
effects as well as the performances of
cruisin Blunt its conclusion was
somewhat controversial and so it’ll be
interesting to see how the sequels
narrative unfolds training is over I’ll
see you tomorrow
number 6 coming to America if you’re
wondering why you don’t see much of
Eddie Murphy anymore know the reason is
pretty simple it looks as if the
comedian has an idea for a sequel to one
of his more admired movies though with
Murphy personally contacting
screenwriter David Sheffield to begin
work 30 years after the release of the
original although it may seem like
Prince Hakeem story was complete the
screenwriters have revealed that the
plot will involve Murphy’s character
pursuing his long-lost American son who
can become the king in the fictional
African nation of Zamunda
damn boy what’s that some kind of Weaver
sir it is my natural hair I have been
growing it since birth
number five King Conan grant me revenge
the proposed sequel to 1982 s Conan the
Barbarian has been in a state of turmoil
for a number of years now though a
script named legend of conan was snubbed
by Universal Arnold Schwarzenegger is
eager to reprise his role as the
Barbarian and it’s fair to say there’s
not much that’s gonna stop him the film
will share no relation to the 2011
reboot starring Jason Momoa rather this
sequel will follow Arnie as an older
Conan who spent his entire life a
warrior and now searches for one final
battle with Arnie now in his 70s it
seems the iconic action star isn’t
making retirement plans any time soon
there is no spring just the wind it
smells fresh
like me almost 30 years after their
first adventure Keanu Reeves and Alex
winter are reuniting for the third movie
in the Bill & Ted franchise details of
the sequel reveal that will see the
time-traveling duo now dispirited in
their middle age until they’re warned
that they must discover a song that will
bring peace to the universe and begin on
another adventure
well we’d want to do it for the same
reason that we did the first two which
is because we love these guys and
there’s something to say while there is
no specific release date yet it looks as
if fans are gonna see life in the
franchise once again the original
creators have penned the script and
number three
Mad Max the wasteland
after the overwhelming success of 2015’s
fury road it shouldn’t be a surprise to
hear that a fifth film and even a
potential sixth and the Mad Max
franchise are in the works including a
Charlize Theron lead picture following
the one-armed warrior furiosa so why
haven’t these productions advanced well
in November 2017 director George
Miller’s production company filed a
lawsuit against Warner Brothers over a
reported seven million dollar bonus
resulting in a holdup in the development
of sequels
fury road was one of the major
blockbusters of recent years and with
Tom Hardy set to reprise his role it
shouldn’t be too long before max is back
in the dystopian wasteland number 2
gremlins 3 for a while the future of a
third gremlins film looked pretty
uncertain that was until Chris Columbus
revealed in April 2000 18 that
production had gotten under way and that
the new movie will almost definitely be
a reboot what’s more exciting is that
Columbus has stated that the script is
quote twisted and dark returning to the
elements that everyone loved about the
first movie with a whole new wave of
horror films arriving on our screens
it’s going to be exciting to see how the
dark humor will reflect the horror genre
today and how the reboot will stand
apart from the original before we unveil
our number one pick here are some
you got a purty mouth
[Music]
[Applause]
number one The Goonies two rumors of
Goonies two have been surfacing on the
internet for some time while writer
Chris Columbus has played down the idea
of a sequel actor Sean Astin has stated
that it will quote definitely get made
with or without producer Steven
Spielberg when he has felt the magic and
and dick and he are in agreement which I
believe will happen then then it’ll
it’ll be a thing while Astin and Cory
Feldman are up for a sequel child star
Jeff Cohen who played chunk in the
original gave up acting to become an
attorney
while plot details are unclear we
wouldn’t be surprised to see the cast
from the original make a cameo
appearance while a new set of kids take
the reins do you agree with our picks
