When You Wish Upon A Star...

Yesterday Cinema Blend posted exclusive news that a sequel to the 1984 sci-fi classic The Last Starfighter is in the pipeline from George Paige Associates, Inc. Relativity Media,, and Universal Pictures...

Variety says that Relativity and Universal have just signed a big four-year deal to co-finance four billion dollars worth of new films. One of which in all likelihood is TLS sequel...

George Paige and Associates doesn't really have a reputation for producing high quality, big-budget product--But with the bigger studios in partnership with them--and if the sequel is even a modest hit, the stature of GPA will surely rise.



I love the original film. While I would agree that it may not be everyone's cup of tea...It's definitely better than most non fans give it credit... With the right creative forces behind it..A great sequel could be born-Can't wait to see what develops out of this news.
