Golden Compass may get sequel so buy it to increase the chance!

[zor]

I just learned about this. Maybe they should recast some of the roles. This is going to be a problem with Harry Potter too but we have too much attachment to the actors to change that one now.

It appears the chance of a sequel to Golden Compass is the same as the chance of a sequel to Prince Caspian

Prince Caspian, the second chapter in C.S. Lewis' Chronicles of Narnia series, is a little bit of a cinematic enigma. It cost a ton to get made, and it did finish 2008 just outside the top 10 grossing films this year, making a little over $140 million in the U.S., but it made almost twice that internationally, and will have made more money than Hellboy II, Saw V or some other sequels out there. So based on box office alone, it's kind of in a position similar to Golden Compass, both films made a bunch of money overseas, while the money in the U.S. could be considered disappointing. Yet it wouldn't surprise me if we saw sequels to either in our futures.

He told the Oxford Mail: "It is quite possible that a sequel will happen but, as everyone knows, the film did not do well in the box office in America and that has a large effect on people's plans. I spoke to the producers last week and they told me about the latest developments.

"They are getting a script together and they have plans to get things going - in time all things are possible and I feel quite positive about it."

Mr Pullman said he hoped there would not be too long a delay before work started on the sequel because Dakota Blue Richards, the 12-year-old star of The Golden Compass, was growing up quite quickly. He added that making a film was a very different, and far more expensive, process to writing a book and having it published.
