FOX STUDIOS TO DO SEQUEL TO INDEPENDENCE DAY - HIT ALIEN MOVIE

Will Smith regrettably isn’t reprising his role in Independence Day 2

EXCLUSIVE: Top brass at 20th Century Fox got some work done this week, giving a green light to the long-awaited Independence Day sequel. The film has been slotted for a May production start, and the studio now will move to close Roland Emmerich’s directing deal. Now, Fox staked a June 24, 2016, release date, so this isn’t a shock, but these dates get recalibrated all the time. From what I’m told, Will Smith regrettably isn’t reprising (though if he said yes, I’m sure Fox, Emmerich and Dean Devlin would write him in, in a heartbeat). Deadline revealed this back in February.

 

MRS DOUBTFIRE 2 IS IN PRODUCTION - STARRING ROBIN WILLIAMS

Mrs. Doubtfire 2 is happening - twenty-one years after the original!

*Adopts Scottish accent” Hellooooooo!
It seems Mrs. Doubtfire is joining Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Twins and Jurassic Park in a long list of films to get a belated revamp.

Robin Williams is set to step into the slippers once again to star in Mrs. Doubtfire 2 twenty-one years after the original hit movie screens back in 1993.

The film’s original director Chris Columbus - no, not the one that helped discover America - is returning. AND they’ve snagged the writer of Will Ferrell’s Christmas classic, Elf - David Berenbaun - to write the film.

Apparently the idea of a sequel almost came together ten years ago, but this is the first time Robin Williams and the director have taken to the idea.
To keep you going in the meantime, here’s an excellent horror remix of the orignal Mrs. Doubtfire's trailer:
