The cult classic movie's sequel is in trouble.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT A potential Labyrinth 2 receives a disappointing update from director Scott Derrickson. The 1986 musical fantasy brought together Jim Henson, George Lucas, and Monty Python's Terry Jones and saw iconic pop star David Bowie take on the role of the powerful Goblin King Jareth.
With just over three years since Derrickson signed on to direct Labyrinth 2 in May 2020, the Doctor Strange and The Black Phone director has shared an unfortunate update on the potential sequel with ComicBook.com.
"I don't know what's happening with that. We never got the script all the way to a place where the studio wanted to make it, but I was very proud of the work that we did on it. And it's a hard, hard project to turn into something commercially viable, because it's so imaginative and surreal that there's no way that it can be done cheaply.
What Is Bringing Labyrinth 2's Pre-Production To A Halt? Despite an initial mixed response and underperformance at the domestic box office, Labyrinth would find its audience through television and home releases, with time ultimately being kinder to the cult classic and solidifying it as a fantasy favorite. As such, a sequel would seem like a safe bet following confirmation in 2016 that a continuation was in the works.
Discussions about a sequel have often led to questions concerning which actor could follow in Bowie's Jareth's footsteps and create a captivating performance on the same level as the late pop star. However, Derrickson's comments also highlight another difficulty that any sequel will face, as concerns around the movie's tone have held pre-production back. As a result, the Labyrinth sequel now hits another setback, leaving doubts about whether the movie will even come to fruition.
