DOOM Movie Sequel? [Oct 18, 2005, 09:38 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
Sci
Fi Wire (thanks Mike Martinez and
1UP) reports that Karl
Urban and Rosamund Pike have signed contracts for a sequel to the imminent DOOM
movie. The story makes it clear that contracts like this are often signed before
definitive plans for sequels are sealed, and that in this case there are no
plans for another DOOM movie at this point. The story also quotes Dwayne "The
Rock" Johnson saying it is possible he would participate in a sequel as well.
What happened with Serenity?
It just didn't break the profits it needed in order to secure a sequel, by a wide margin. It's first two weeks probably needed about twice what it took in.
Universal will make it's money back w/ overseas and DVD sales ... but I think it was hoping the existing fan base would spread the word and make the opening weekend killer.
Silly Universal. Firefly fans have already bored all of their friend with how great the show is. Instead of all the sneak peeks, they should have done a much better promo+trailer campaign. You Can't Stop The Signal? WTF was that?
