Reefa Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Everyone grows up remembering the key movies from their childhood, and as a child of the 80′s I count The Goonies on that list. It was, and still is a great movie all kids should have the chance to watch, and now it looks set to get a sequel for a whole new generation to enjoy.Director Richard Donner shot The Goonies in the early 80′s using a screenplay written by Chris Columbus (Gremlins, Harry Potter, Home Alone) and having Steven Spielberg as executive producer. The actors have had varying levels of success since the movie’s release in 1985. Josh Brolin and Sean Astin being the most successful on screen. Donner is now 83-years-old and counts 16 Blocks as the last movie he made back in 2006. But he apparently isn’t done yet. During an autograph signing recently he was asked if he had another comic-book film in him (his company produces the X-Men movies), to which he responded, “If you call The Goonies a comic book – we’re doing a sequel.” He also went on to confirm he wants the original cast to feature.It seems likely that The Goonies 2 would focus on a new set of kids searching out a different treasure, but with the original cast featuring in adult roles throughout the story. Doing a movie about the original Goonies grown up would probably be a much tougher sell to producers, and what exactly would that story be?Donner’s comment makes it seem like The Goonies sequel is a definite project, but you can never believe that until a studio confirms filming is happening. If it does, let’s hope it at least comes close to the quality of the original.Source Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
