Dungeons & Dragons film sequel development

Overview

Hasbro and the producers of ‘Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves’ are seeking a new studio partner to finance and distribute a sequel to the film. While a screenplay has been completed, Paramount-Skydance declined to move forward with the project due to the financial performance of the first film.

Directors John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein noted that the original film’s box office underperformance was caused by a ‘perfect storm’ of factors, including competition from ‘The Super Mario Bros. Movie’ and licensing controversies. For the sequel to proceed, Hasbro must secure a partner willing to operate under more economical conditions regarding budget, filming schedules, and distribution strategies.
