Maxwell Smart Will Be Back - Get Smart 2 Gets a Greenlight! - Blu-ray Forum

Although it only made a solid $130 million at the box office this summer, Get Smart is being turned into a franchise and being given a much needed sequel. Warner Brothers has signed an exclusive three-year first-look deal with Steve Carell to act and even produce projects that come his way. While this Get Smart sequel isn't part of the deal, the same announcement today on Variety included a mention that "the studio is mobilizing a sequel for Carell to return as Maxwell Smart." Considering Maxwell Smart is a comic copy of James Bond, this was destined to become a franchise anyway just like that rather successful series.

Good for Steve Carrell, I like his work. I hope Anne Hathaway finds her way in too somehow.

Can't wait. Loved Get Smart as a kid growing up and was so pissed when they made that disaster The Nude Bomb. We finally get a good Smart and sequal. Whats not to like.
