'The Goonies' never say die, but 'The Goonies 2' has never come to life for a multitude of grave reasons.
The Big Picture In 1985, The Goonies never said die and inspired a new classic that became beloved by a generation of 1980s kids. Decades later, The Goonies has endured as a beloved staple of 1980s pop culture while the bevy of child actors from the original film that have gone on to become iconic modern performers has further bolstered the reputation of this particular motion picture.
When Did Talks for ‘The Goonies 2’ Begin? Technically, audiences first got a project entitled The Goonies 2 back in 1987 through the magical world of video games. That title for the Nintendo Entertainment System was far from a proper Goonies follow-up, though, which remained elusive. The obvious problem with pulling off a follow-up was that the kids from the original film very quickly aged out of their initial roles.
This was another key issue keeping The Goonies 2 from ever existing. The original Goonies was attached to a lot of big behind-the-scenes figures who had very concrete ideas on how the franchise should progress. Plus, these individuals were all busy people who might not always have time in their respective schedules to work on Goonies 2. These and other problems were especially apparent with Spielberg, a man who has rigid control over whether or not films he produces get sequels.
Unfortunately for fans of all things Goonies, writer Chris Columbus made it clear in 2015 that there still wasn't a concrete idea for a new sequel. While he noted that a sequel to fellow 1980s Warner Bros. movie Gremlins was well on its way to completion , he remarked that The Goonies 2 was, by comparison, stuck in limbo as everyone tried to crack a story.
