I'm going to do a sequel to 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo' and this one is called 'The Girl in the Spider's Web', which is an American production. It's a clean slate: new cast, new director and everything and they're skipping from book one to book four.

After 'Pitch Perfect,' I only want to be in sequels. No. 2 of whatever.

My favorite sequels are basically all Mike Myers films - 'Wayne's World 2,' 'Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me,' 'Shrek 2.' Anything he does, it's best the second time around. He needs to do 'So I Married an Axe Murderer 2.'

That's always the trick with the sequels, is how much do you repeat from the first one. Because we all get bummed out when you go see a sequel and it's beat for beat.

Sequels are desperate.

T Sequels Sequel

You can be precious about something like 'Blair Witch' and say, 'How dare you approach it as a sequel or remake' or whatever, but its legacy was so tarnished by 'Book of Shadows' that someone had to come in and do something in the spirit of the original.

Adam Wingard

You Witch Wit

A lot of people ask me, 'Are you going to do a sequel to 'The Guest' or 'You're Next?' - those movies weren't financially viable, so even though there are a lot of fans of it, it'd be a pretty small market we'd be appealing to. It's got to be a big hit for you to really justify that.

If you look at the best-seller list for American fiction, they're all sequels to detective stories or stories about hunting serial killers. That's what's called American fiction these days.

Albert Brooks

You UN Tin

I don't know; I guess they'll never make another 'Nemo.' I see they're making another 'Monsters, Inc.' I had a wonderful idea for them. I swear to God, I think there could be a great sequel to 'Nemo' where the fish never will leave home. He just won't leave. 'Getting Rid of Nemo.' Right, 'You're 30 years old! Get out of here!'

Albert Brooks

Home Great God

Sequels are generally done in a rush. They're done with a sense of urgency. The first time, you spend a long time developing to get it over the line. The second time, you don't. Your expectations are different, and your motivations are different.

Alex Garland

Time Your You

I really don't know why Scarlett has such appeal. When I began writing the sequel, I had a lot of trouble because Scarlett is not my kind of person. She's virtually illiterate, has no taste, never learns from her mistakes.

Alexandra Ripley

Car Writing Why

The cast of 'Fukrey' will remain the same in the sequel. But the story is more of a fresh one.

I'd gone to Oxford to do graduate studies in the history of the slave trade, but I came across Georgiana's letters, gave up that thesis, and wrote one on her instead. When I learned that Georgiana's great-nephews supported opposite sides in the American Civil War, I knew this would be the perfect sequel.

Amanda Foreman

War History Great

I would want a sequel to 'Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai.' But more than me, it's the audience who are looking forward to the same.

Amisha Patel

The first 'Blade Runner' is a cool movie. It's a classic. Just to be part of the sequel was such an honor and a beautiful learning experience.

Ana de Armas

Learning Experience Cool

What I can't tell is, I don't know if there's a subliminal resistance to the idea of a sequel to 'The Phantom of the Opera' anyway.

Andrew Lloyd Webber

Way Tom Tell

I've often thought that we left the original 'Phantom' with a little bit of a cliff hanger, and I thought, 'Well, why not to do a sequel to it' at one point.

Andrew Lloyd Webber

Anger Wit Why Not

Like a lot of people, for a long time I thought that the road to hell is paved with bad sequels.

I read 'Treasure Island' for the first time at university. And I started to notice then how unresolved some things were. Later, I realised that Stevenson was interested in sequels, and I wondered whether he would have gone back to it had he lived longer.

Andrew Motion

And I'm not anti-sequel, but I just feel like there are very few ideas that are meant to be continued.

Andrew Stanton

Very Us Tin

I mean, frankly, I'm not speaking as a representative of Disney or Pixar, I'm speaking as just myself as a filmmaker: I don't go into anything that often thinking about a sequel.

Andrew Stanton

Us Thinking Think

Most people know me at Pixar as the guy that doesn't like to do sequels or very reluctant to do sequels.

Andrew Stanton

Sequels are always tricky.

Andy Muschietti

'Interstellar' is a thematic sequel to Christopher Nolan's last original film, 'Inception'. It drops us into a dark future full of otherworldly landscapes and time distortions.

Annalee Newitz

I don't know if I would do sequels. I almost feel like when I'm done with them, they're going to have to find their own way.

Anne Rivers Siddons

I'm not a huge fan of prequels and sequels and the cynical rush to make money on the back of books by other writers who are now dead.

Anthony Horowitz

Dabangg' symbolises entertainment, drama, good music, actions and we have tried to give doses of all of that in the sequel too.

Arbaaz Khan

A sequel is going to be a pressure no matter who directs it. A sequel is only made when the original film works.

Arbaaz Khan

By definition a sequel can't be original. So you've got to figure out what worked the first time around.

Barry Sonnenfeld

Maybe Oliver Stone doesn't lend himself well to remakes or sequels, because he does them so well the first time.

Ben Barnes

Early in my career, I decided not to do sequels. I know that children enjoy them, but I valued the feeling that this was the only time I would write about these characters. I felt it gave me an added incentive to do my best by them, to tell readers everything I knew, to hold nothing back.

Betsy Byars

I did three of the original 'Twilight Zone' episodes, yes. Also, I did a little thing in the feature film, and then I wrote one of the episodes in 'The Twilight Zone's last round where I starred with Cloris Leachman and my daughter Liliana in a true sequel to 'It's a Good Life.' So, yes, I have a good 'Twilight Zone' alumni jacket.

Bill Mumy

I would love to see a sequel to 'The Rocketeer.' I'd love to see that! I don't know that I would be in it. I may be a little long in the tooth to play 'The Rocketeer.' But I would love to be a part of that in some form or fashion.

Billy Campbell

We wanted to do a sequel with Jim and Jeff. They said that the word was that Jim didn't want to do any sequels. We approached him and he said he would do it, but not until next year. New Line said it was too long to wait.

Bobby Farrelly

I don't think I can make a film without Salman. He is in 'Mr. India 2' and also in the sequels to 'No Entry' and 'Wanted.' I'm his new Sooraj Barjatya.

Boney Kapoor

I don't write any kind of sequel or remake.

Bong Joon-ho

Usually, people begin with very clear ideas of good movies, they begin with clear ideas about their characters, and then, as they do sequels, they seem to forget the characters more and more, and try to out-spectacle.

Brad Bird

Other than Peter Jackson doing 'Lord of the Rings,' I don't get it when filmmakers follow up a movie with a sequel to the same movie. God bless 'em if they can be up for it, but that would drive me insane.

Brad Bird

With a sequel you're always trying to get bigger and better.

Breckin Meyer

'Evil Dead 1' was never supposed to have a sequel.

Bruce Campbell

I was thinking about doing another film at the same time, which was the sequel to Basic Instinct and I just had a feeling that wasn't going to happen. You know, I just kind of read the writing on the wall.

Bruce Greenwood

We are proud to be the No. 1 most funded film on Indiegogo... and with a totally new property. In a world filled with sequels and reboots, Lazer Team is a brand-new IP being made possible by the people who want to see it.

Burnie Burns

A nice thing about being at Disney is that these movies can develop into a presence in theme parks and become something real, or maybe get a sequel or tell other stories.

Byron Howard

'School of Rock' was just once in a lifetime things; I want to be a doctor, actually. I'd go an do the sequel if they asked me to.

Caitlin Hale

I'd love to see a good script of one of my books, in these years of animations and comic book sequels, and had so many written over the years, but none quite clicked.

Carl Hiaasen

I have been in 'Star Wars' since I was 20. And they're not just doing some goofy sequel, like, to service the hunger of it. It actually has been thought out and it has integrity and they took it seriously, which they didn't have to do, you know? It's hard to do, given the appetite and the angles from which everybody's coming at it.

Carrie Fisher

I would definitely return to 'Neverland' for a sequel if there was the chance again because we all got on so well, and I think it will be great.

Charlie Rowe

Go out and find a copy of 'The Shrinking Of Treehorn' and its sequel, 'Treehorn's Treasure.' Written by Florence Parry Heide and illustrated by the great Edward Gorey, master of the gothic and the macabre, these books are small masterpieces.

Chris Riddell

Sequels are hard.

Christopher Miller

I will never write a sequel to anything that I will ever write.

Chuck Palahniuk

I'm going to do a sequel to 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo' and this one is called 'The Girl in the Spider's Web', which is an American production. It's a clean slate: new cast, new director and everything and they're skipping from book one to book four.
