@MrPopOfficial@ToonHive@DEADLINE You can thank this guy for making it happen all because Black Adam bombed and he needed a quick box office turnaround so he immediately went to Disney with this idea. Wasn't even on their radar until he walked through the door.
@SassyValkyrie Oh yeah between that and the Grinch Walmart commercials and McDonald's meal ads last year, they've been wanting to do more live action stuff since his wife passed. New leadership and new ideas.
@MrPendington@tobikumori Definitely the former because between the recent live action Cat in the Hat social media content and the Grinch Walmart commercials and McDonald's meal ads last year, wouldn't surprise me they've been wanting to do more live action stuff for awhile since his wife passed.
@AGlitchyDemon Maybe either of these directions but my guess is either a direct continuation with a recast younger Cindy or a time jump legacy sequel where a grown up Cindy has a kid of her own.
@Mercyhank@ZachhPope Sure would but would they want to bring back Myers? Just use Bill Hader and move forward. Then again, the Seuss estate recently started doing Cat in the Hat social media content with a likeness of Myer's version...https://t.co/uawJjLFypD
@Aphoticphoton@GraceRandolph A mixture would be ideal but Carrey said the only way he'll agree to a sequel is if he's CGI. Hopefully both sides agree to a compromise. If it's 100% animated, the effects better be Davey Jones or Planet of the Apes quality.
@MidCentury43 That used to be the case but probably since she passed, the estate probably slowly changed their tune about live action movies and money talks. Or Universal AND the estate found a loophole where they can do live action movies but they just can't be based on the books.
@JohnByn201212@DiscussingFilm Definitely. Taylor and Jim reunited last November at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction ceremony and she re-recorded Where Are You Christmas with her rock band (which was really good). In February she said a sequel isn't needed but who knows with the right story.
@SassyValkyrie Anytime! Oh yeah wouldn't surprise me they saw dollar signs the moment she passed and been wanting to do more live action content for quite some time. They recently started social media content with a Cat in the Hat that's kinda based on Mike Myers.

@CurttiMagurtti He said the only way he'll do it is if he's CGI Mo-Cap because he was uncomfortable in the makeup and looks like he'll get his wish. Just hope the effects are Davey Jones or Planet of the Apes quality.
@cobaltmenace That's why he said the only way he'll do it is if he's CGI Mo-Cap and looks like he'll get his wish. Just hope it's Davey Jones/Planet of the Apes quality.
