The Goonies Cast Says That Rumored Sequel Ain’t Happening

Now that Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is out and making money, it probably won’t be long before more beloved 80s movies get legacy sequels of their. (Or rather, more of them get added onto the pile.) If you were thinking The Goonies was going to be one of those, it sounds like you should direct your hopes basically anywhere else. 

Earlier this week, a rumor went around alleging Warner Bros. was looking to start up a new Goonies movie. It sounded slightly official thanks to claiming the original cast was set to return, Steven Spielberg (creator of the first film’s story) would direct, and that this would-be film was set for release sometime in 2026 or 2027. Things were further exacerbated by Sean Astin—or rather, whoever runs his social media—seemingly putting his support behind it. But it’s not to be, as fellow original stars Corey Feldman and Martha Plimpton shot that rumor down hard. Feldman said he had “no info” of any sequel in the works, while Plimpton was more direct in her words. 

“There’s no Goonies 2 script, there’s no one attached. Spielberg is not directing, it’s not real,” she said on Instagram. What IS real is CHECK YOUR REGISTRATION AND VOTE!!!!”

Much like with Beetlejuice 2, there’ve been plenty of rumors and hopes over the years of a new Goonies movie coming to fruition. After the cast reunited for a virtual COVID-19 fundraiser in 2020, Spieberg admitted he’s talked over potential sequel ideas with co-writer Chris Columbus, the late director Richard Donner, and producer Lauren Shuler Donner, but they never settled on anything concrete. Funnily enough, there’s a show about the Goonies movie in the works called Our Timebut as far as an actual continuation, it seems those dreams will have to stay dreams.
