Ke Huy Quan talks about The Goonies sequel
Ke Huy Quan discussed the status of The Goonies sequel in an interview with ComicBook while promoting Zootopia 2. He said he has not read the script but confirmed that a second draft has been completed. Quan explained, “I first heard about it when I saw Steven Spielberg at an event and he was so excited,” and added, “We try to do it, so let’s manifest it. I know we’ve been trying for the last 40 years, but I feel quite good about it.”
Chris Columbus and Steven Spielberg are developing the sequel, Quan said. He noted the progress on the script, stating, “I read he turned in the second draft and they’re really happy about it.” He also told Fortune Feimster, “We’re gonna do it. I want her to be in it,” while confirming that he wants to play Richard “Data” Wang again. He said, “I would love to revisit that character and go on another adventure with my Goonies brothers and sisters.”
Potsy Ponciroli joined the project as the screenwriter when the announcement was made earlier in the year. Warner Bros. reported in January that the team had begun work on a sequel, and the studio confirmed in February that the film was officially moving forward. The 1985 film was a hit and later entered the United States National Film Registry for its cultural significance.
Josh Brolin shared information about earlier drafts in August (via Entertainment Online). He said writers had produced several scripts in previous years, but the team did not approve them. Reports at the time noted that these versions did not align with the direction the studio intended to pursue.
Quan’s comments about a completed second draft marked the latest step in the ongoing development of a new Goonies film.
