Fear of a return
Josh Brolin still has fond memories of The Goonies, but he has a strange fear of a sequel.
He loves every memory of the 1985 classic, but he’s worried that a mediocre sequel could tarnish that beloved legacy.
In his own words – “all that’s good about it will be lost.”
Spielberg’s tough test
Brolin has revealed that Steven Spielberg has seen “five scripts” for Goonies 2 over the past four decades and rejected them all!
Spielberg has such strict criteria that no concept has passed his test.
That’s why a sequel has been a dream for so many years.
Now the situation has changed

Potsy Ponciroli (producer of Old Henry, Still the King) is writing the screenplay. Fans’ wait is about to end!
Old stars to return?

- Ke Huy Quan (Data) has expressed his desire to return after winning an Oscar.
- Sean Astin (Mikey) showed his excitement by sharing a fun fake poster.
- Robert Davi (Jake Fratelli) hopes his political views don’t become a hindrance to his return.
What happens next?
Fans and the film industry are now watching Spielberg’s decision.
Everyone hopes that if he agrees, Goonies 2 will live up to its name.
Will this sequel be able to replicate the magic of the original? Or will Brolin’s fears come true? The wait has begun!
