![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Given all of that, it seems that a sequel to The Princess Bride is inconceivable. Associated Press: Gabide Sidibe was nominated for an Oscar for her portrayal of Precious, a character from Sapphire's first book, 'Push.' Her second, 'The Kid,' picks up the story. Stephen King, the one writer who might be allowed to touch the project, said that " if there's ever going to be (a sequel), Bill will have to write it" before Goldman's death. Given that, it seems unlikely that Goldman's estate would grant permission for anyone else to finish the story as a book or film, although a lot of people want to remake The Princess Bride apparently.Įven if Goldman's estate were interested in crafting a sequel without Goldman, the idea of a new Princess Bride movie is controversial. Over a decade passed before he allowed someone to adapt the novel into a film, and then only because director Rob Reiner was a huge fan of the book. When The Princess Bride was first optioned for a movie, Goldman bought back the film rights with his own money after the studio management changed. Either way, there would likely be some issues with the rights for a Princess Bride sequel. ![]()
