It is still surreal to say, but a sequel to The Goonies It is officially going on. After decades of voices, false departures and infinite debates between the fans and even the cast, The Goonies 2 It is actually written and according to the screenwriter Potsy PonciroliIt is almost complete.
While talking to the deadline at the Venice Film Festival, Ponciroli has revealed where it is in the writing process and the news is rather encouraging.
“I transformed a first draft, which was welcomed very well, and I have a second draft and I did about 95% with that, so we are moving in the right direction.”
This is a big step forward for a sequel that lingers in development limbo for years. The late Richard Donnerwho directed the original, he often said he and Steven Spielberg He had launched ideas for a follow-up, but he never gathered.
Even the members of the original cast were divided, with some who said a return to the moles of Goon would never have happened while others were open to grab their smooth shoes and jump again.
Of course, with a sequel to such an iconic adventure film, there is always skepticism. Ponciroli is well aware of this, but has reassured the fans of the fact that he is not trying to replace the original.
“I know there is a lot of” we need a new Goonies “. But I am the biggest fan of the original, it’s my favorite film of all time. I would never have” redone “the Goonies. For me, it was a story that has never ended, so this is the film I want to see as one of his greatest fans.”
As for the details of the plot, things are still kept secret. It is not yet known if someone from the original cast will return, even if many fans expect that they will do so, they will probably involve their children who will go to a new adventure. For now, we will only have to wait and see what Ponciroli and the study have in store.
After forty years, the Goonies never say die, and it seems that their next treasure hunt could finally be around the corner.
