Are they planning to make more “Series of Unfortunate Events” movies?
There is no “official” statement to serve you from any network executives right now, as no one is talking at all about the Lemony Snicket series whatsoever. It is generally accepted that the first movie, while not exactly a flop, was certainly a box office disappointment given the star power of Jim Carrey, and the popularity of the books. Back in 2005, there were definitely whispers that a sequel was a possibility, but once the box office figures rolled in, everyone in Hollywood became very quiet on the matter. And to give Hollywood a tiny amount of credit, to continue with the movies would be quite the writing challenge. However, I would adore it if Tim Burton were to pick this series up, dust it off, and bring it back to life. I think he could do the job honorably. But for now, there is no Lemony Snicket sequel plan. You should never say never though (look at the new Indiana Jones movie, who could’ve seen that coming??).
