Put the plug to your water bottle and sit down to eat before midnight, because it is possible that a Mogwai soon return to our lives. A new report indicates that Warner Bros. will develop Gremlins 3 with the editor of the original film Christopher Columbus. This is not the end of the study plans to please the nostalgia of the 80s. Warner Bros. also expects remedy for a series of the Goonies.
In a long article in Deadline about Warner’s new film strategy, Anthony D’Alessandro slipped in a small nugget full of possibilities. Here’s what he wrote:
Franchise hopes abound in the Lord of the Rings: the search for Gollum, DC’s practice Magic 2, Clayface and Supergirl, Drew Goddard, the new story of a new matrix, a new Columbus Gremlins and a Goonies treatment.
A new Gremlins. By Christopher Columbus? The user who wrote the beloved 1984 movie. Oh, that’s it?
Obviously not, because right after that enormous bit of news is the tidbit that Warner Bros. is also in the early stages of finally making a long-discussed Goonies sequel. That one seems much further away than this reported Gremlins 3 project, but IP is King and nostalgia sells. If that treatment is everything the studio hopes it will be, a Goonies 2 will become a lot more likely.
Gremlins 3 has also long been a subject of speculation (and not just because of Nick Lutsko’s unauthorized masterpiece). Gremlins: The New Batch was released in 1990, and after decades of waiting for a third film, it seemed like we might be on our way. He was on his way to getting one in 2017. That’s when Columbus revealed that he had already written a script, which he called “twisted and dark. “Is this the same situation that Warner Bros. is about to do?Or did you revise or even start over?
We don’t know yet. But we do know we’ll start making sure not to leave any random cups of water out. We’ve waited a long time for Gremlins 3, but we still remember the rules.
