The Kill Order and Fever Code are much darker additions to the Maze Runner franchise, considering it is about the solar flares that hit Earth and ravage mankind with disease. But we'll see what Fox has in store for this series and this world. It's probably out of my hands, but I would give anything for that to happen because it would be a lot of fun and it would be fun to see some of these actors return to the world. That's an easy one to answer because I certainly hope so. Back in 2015, the franchise’s author James Dashner told Screen Rant about his thoughts on his newer books being adapted for the big or small screen.

But there are two books waiting to be adapted if Hollywood decided to give the franchise another look. (Image credit: (Fox)) Are There Any Plans For Future Maze Runner Movies?įor the time being, that’s it for the Maze Runner movies.

However, it does mean that Disney could potentially turn around and do a Maze Runner Disney+ series or reboot the movie franchise down the line like Percy Jackson is currently getting. The company was acquired by Disney in a major deal, which may have absorbed or tabled plans to expand the franchise further if that was on the docket for Fox, it may not be a priority for Disney. With each sequel, the franchise did seem to lose some of its audience instead of expanding into something bigger, and that could be a problem from a business standpoint.Īlso, the Maze Runner franchise is produced by Fox, which went through some significant changes following the release of The Death Cure in 2018. First off, even though Maze Runner kept the same filmmakers and cast, it did not maintain its quality and many significant changes were made from the source material as the franchise raged on. My final vote - a very solid 8/10, and I'm wishing for parts 2 and 3 ASAP.(Image credit: (Fox)) Why We Haven't Seen More Maze Runner Moviesĭespite the Maze Runner filmmakers taking a hard line on ending the series following The Death Cure, there are also a number of factors that likely went into the door for the Maze Runner series being closed after the 2018 conclusion. I haven't had this much fun in a long while - although i gotta say Edge OF Tomorrow was just as good. well, nice CGI, entertaining film that will please just about every audience there is, without being horribly commercial, soppy and cliché. A couple of the characters (Gally, Chuck) are phoned in, but then again, how would you write this kind of plot without these characters getting thrown in? So the film is a very pleasant, well paced, well directed, reasonably well acted, decently scored, great. Now, i normally like more 'profound' films, but for once, i really enjoyed this sci-fi romp and no, it's nothing like Twilight.

I mistakenly googled the film's name before it was over, and disappointed myself to learn that it's just the first of three parts, so it means waiting another 2-3 years for the other two films, but that means also that i have something to look forward to. Thomas is deposited in a community of boys after his memory is erased, soon learning they're all trapped in a maze that will require him to join forces with fellow 'runners' for a shot at escape. And the acting is barebones, these are kids, not Cyrano De Bergerac or Mephistofele, but boy the film is well done. yeah sure, it has a *few* weak points and maybe a plot hole or two.
