John Carpenter Says A Thing Sequel Could Happen, But He’s ‘Sworn to Secret’

Director John Carpenter recently made an interesting comment about The thing this is sure to plant some seeds of excitement in fans of the original film. Speaking of Creepy Catalog in a recent interview, the director was asked about the possibility of a sequel and this was his answer:

“I’m sworn to secrecy, ok, because there could be, I don’t know if there will be, there could be a Thing 2.”

Well, it would be pretty crazy if we end up getting a direct sequel to The thing. There are no other details on what to expect or if Carpenter is being considered to direct the project. It would be pretty crazy if someone could get Carpenter to direct another movie because it seems like he just isn’t motivated to direct anymore. He’s just enjoying playing video games. But if he returns to direct a sequel to The thingthe fans would freak out!

When previously there was talk of a possible sequel to The thingcarpenter said:

“Maybe The Thing. Maybe Prince of Darkness. I can see a little more of it. But we’ll see. You never know in this business. Really not. But there’s been some discussion about The Thing and what we could have done because, as far as we know, both of the two main characters — Childs [Keith David] and MacReady [Kurt Russell] — are still alive. They were alive at the end of The Thing, so maybe they’re still alive.”

I’d actually be curious to see a sequel to The thingI have no idea if that’s actually going to happen, but if it does, if Carpenter doesn’t direct, who do you think would be a good director to hire him?
