Is 'The Goonies' 2 Really Happening?

Warner Bros. "The Goonies" 25th Anniversary Celebration

One of the most beloved movies of the entire 1980s is the epic adventure The Goonies starring Josh Brolin, Corey Feldman and Sean Astin and executive produced by none other than the king of 80s kids movies Steven Spielberg.

And in the 35 years since the movie premiered there have been countless rumors about a sequel and Stephen himself has finally spoken about them.

Actor Josh Gad has a new YouTube show called Reunite Apart that he created to raise money for charity during this pandemic where cast and creators of classic shows and movies reunite on Zoom. And for the premiere episode, he hit a home run with basically the entire cast of The Goonies, even Cyndi Lauper who sang the theme song, director Richard Donner and Stephen Spielberg.

“The original team and I have had a lot of conversations about it," Steven dished when asked about a sequel. "Every couple of years we come up with an idea but then it doesn’t hold water.”

That said, he hasn't ruled out a sequel eventually coming together so perhaps one day The Goonies might ride again.
