10 Planned Movie Sequels That Thankfully Never Happened

Movie sequels have a reputation for being cheap knock-offs of the original, and a number of canceled projects would’ve further proven that point if they’d actually happened. When a movie makes a profit, studios often want to capitalize and expand the story in future titles. For instance, Barbie was a smash hit, so Mattel and Warner Bros. instantly put out the idea of a Barbie 2, as well as several other toy-based movie ideas. This was to the dismay of audiences, who appreciated Barbie for not being linked to a larger franchise.
