Ever since 1985, every year or two there’s been a rumour that a sequel to The Goonies might be in the works. It’s gotten to the point where most people assumed it will never happen, but then few people thought we’d get The Lost Boys 2 & 3 either (and even more wish we hadn’t).
However now director Richard Donner himself has confirmed that they’re working on The Goonies 2. After TMZ stopped him on the street, they asked if he’d return to the comic book genre he helped create with 1978’s Superman
He replies, “If you call The Goonies a comic book.” He then adds, “We’re doing a sequel.”
When asked if any of the original cast is going to return, he says, “Hopefully all of them.”
Several years ago a script for The Goonies 2 was developed, which followed a new group of kids, many of the children of the original Goonies. Over the years the likes of Sean Astin, Josh Brolin, Corey Feldman, Kerri Green, and Martha Plimpton have expressed an interest in returning, but the film has never seemed all that close to actually happening.
While this isn’t exactly an official announcement, the fact it’s on Donner’s mind certainly suggests it’s something he’s actively working on. We’ll have to wait and see if this actually turns into anything.
Take a look at the TMZ vid below.
Keanu Reeves could do with a hit. He hasn’t had a bona fide success in a long time, and recently 47 Ronin turned into a costly failure, while his directorial debut, Man Of Tai Chi, barely made a dent in the box office.
Michelle Monaghan has been having recent success with True Detective, but now she’s heading in a slightly different director as she has signed up to play the female lead in Pixels, according to 
After years in development, numerous delays and many people thinking it would never happen, production is finally set to begin later this month on the fourth Jurassic Park film, Jurassic World.
Ryan Reynolds is best known for comedy and action roles, but he’s actually had more dramatic parts than you might have realised. Now he’s got a part that will really test his acting chops as Deadline reports Reynolds has joined The Woman in Gold, alongside Helen Mirren and Daniel Bruhl.
To get a film to audiences takes a lot of people. Most go unnoticed and some rarely even get to appear in the credits at the end of the movie. That’s particularly true in gay cinema, which relies on passionate advocates to champion the small, independent films they think are worthwhile, in order to ensure they get to potential viewers.
Last year Independence Day and 2012 director Roland Emmerich announced he was stepping away from disaster epics to make something more personal – an independent film about the Stonewall riots.
