Yes, you read that correctly, 29 years after the original, a sequel to The Goonies is on the cards.

Richard Donner, the director of the original movie, told TMZ while signing autographs in Beverley Hills, that his next film will be a Goonies follow-up.

When asked if any of the original stars will reprise their roles, he said: ‘Hopefully, all of them.’


The 1985 film, which was written by Steven Spielberg and Chris Columbus and is now considered a cult classic, starred Sean Astin, Josh Brolin and Corey Feldman.

There has been talk of a Goonies sequel for several years, with Brolin revealing as recently as 2010 that a script had already been written.



Feldman has been the most vocal about wanting to star in a sequel, previously telling Empire that there ‘is always hope’ for Goonies 2.
