Not for the want of trying, though.
If Fincher changes his mind though?
But it is clear that this is a project thats struggling to get made.
The film had been set to shoot this spring, ahead of a release in October 2017.
The last word on the film is that it would happen in 2019 at the earliest.
Chances of still happening:It will probably happen one day, andItmakes it much more likely.
However, it could still be some years off.
Mrs. Browns Boys: DMovie 2
Theres not been a massive clamor of demand for a newMrs.
The production was duly put on hold.
That said, if the obstacles lift, OCarroll reportedly has plans for two more feature films…
Chances of still happening:Quite good.
Yet whileDick Tracyhit, it didnt hit too hard.
However,a brief snippet of a recent interviewsuggested thatDick Tracy 2still exists as a possible project after all.
The box office failure of BeattysRules Dont Applycant have helped.
Chances of still happening:Slim and virtually non-existent.
We fell for that ourselves.
The first two are definitely pressing ahead, but itsNational Treasurethats surprisingly found itself in development limbo.
This one might just have a glimmer of hope about it…
Chances of still happening:Dim and getting dimmer with each passing year.
Furthermore, Jolie was set to reprise the title role.
Chances of still happening:Very poor.
Profit levels were not high.
Yet the film has stalled.
But still, theres progres.
Furthermore, there are plans for a new, rebooted trilogy ofMen In Blackfilms.
So its more Men in Black, minus Smith and Jones.
Chances of still happening:High.
Conan 3
Limbo.
Nothing but limbo here, which seems to be the perennial problem now with Arnold Schwarzenegger-centric projects.
Higher profile sequels to Arnies work are looking less likely.
Its not believed to be formally dead, but it does seem unlikely.
Chances of still happening:Not great.
For his 10th and final movie?
Since then, though, Smith has reassessed his plans.
But last year, he revealed that his planned sequels were dead.
The plan had been to takeMallratsto television, but Smith couldnt get anyone to bite and pay for it.
Itll take an about turn to change that, and theres no sign of one coming.
Chances of still happening:Next to zero.
But it did not go to plan.
And then Disney pulled the plug.
Chances of still happening:Better than they have been for a while.
Disney clearly thinks theres a bit of life left inTronyet.
Still, best not to hold out eternal hope for this.
Turns out it isnt, but this Sherlock is certainly taking his time.
They may be wary of more Ritchie action in the foreseeable future.
Chances of still happening:Not great afterKing Arthur.
Plus, Ritchie is off right now to remakeAladdinat Disney.
Chances of still happening:Dont write it off, dont hold your breath.
Hellboy 3
First of all its happening!
Second of all though, it isnt happenign the way you might want.
The new film stars David Harbour as Hellboy and is directed by Neil Marshall.
Chances of still happening:No chance at all of del Toros sequel now.
But the reboot is coming Jan. 11, 2019.
Dredd 2
Well, it aint happening, is it?
But on the upside, a TV show is being developed, and thats happening.
Chances of still happening:Zero chance of a film.
A good chance of a TV show.
Right now,Beverly Hills Cop 4isnt shooting either, which leads to questions as to just whats happened.
The project is still said to be alive, even as Paramount removed it from its schedule in 2016.
Still, no official word leaves us still fairly skeptical.
Chances of still happening:Not great, not terrible.
Chances of still happening:100 percent.
Its unclear what the stumbling block is, but we hope it gets sorted shortly…
Chances of still happening:We live in hope.
Galaxy Quest 2
The belovedGalaxy Questis a film thats surely always being watched somewhere on planet Earth.
And back in 2014, Tim Allen revealed that a screenplay had been written for a sequel.
But a sequel never came to pass.
Guttingly, it turns out it got a lot closer than many of us realized.
In April 2016, Sam Rockwell confirmed that Amazon was considering a sequel that would have filmed that year.
The tragic, early death of the wonderful Alan Rickman though pretty much stopped the project in its tracks.
Furthermore, Tim Allens lack of availability didnt help.
Butas Rockwell toldNerdist,How do you fill that void of Alan Rickman?
Thats a hard void to fill.
The answer: you dont.
We suspect that a secondGalaxy Questmovie has been permanently parked although plans remain afoot for a spin-off TV show.
Chances of still happening:Zero.
Furthermore, he noted that there had been interest from Fox in pursuing the project.
Both David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson have been supportive of the idea in the past.
That said, Carter also conceded that it was a long way from actually happening.
Triplets
Finally, another Schwarzenegger project, and one with the same problem.
Ivan Reitman would return to direct, and Ryan Dixon and Josh Gad have been working on the screenplay.
Its the same drill asConan, here.
Schwarzenegger maintains thatTripletsis an active project, but theres been precious little sign of it getting before a camera.
We wait and see what happens next…
Chances of still happening:Reasonably low.
