5 Movies I Want See Get Made(But May Never Happen)

Star Wars: Obi-Wan Kenobi Spinoff

Ever since LucasFilm bought the rights to the Star Wars franchise back in 2012, they have putting out as many as movies as they can, releasing one per year since 2015.

But after the fan backlash to The Last Jedi and the poor box office performance of Solo(the Han Solo origin story), Disney announced the Star Wars franchise will go on hiatus after Episode IX is released in December 2019.

That means many spin-off films that they were considering could be in jeopardy like a potential Obi-Wan Kenobi movie starring Ewen McGregor, who played the famous Jedi in the Star Wars prequels from 1999-2005.

While the prequels polarized many Star Wars fans, most fans thought McGregor's portrayal of the role first played by Alec Guinness in the original Star Wars back in 1977, was a highlight of those films and were hoping for a movie to see what Obi-Wan did during his time on Tattooine while Luke was growing up.

But while we will not get an Obi-Wan movie, we will get a six-episode series on the new streaming Disney Plus coming soon.

Mad Max 5

Thirty years after the last Mad Max movie, director George Miller put together one of the best action movies of all time with Mad Max: Fury Road, which was acclaimed by critics around the world and even earned a Best Picture nomination at the Academy Awards.
After Fury Road''s release, Miller said they had enough material to make two more movies and Tom Hardy, the man who took over the role from Mel Gibson, said he was signed on for three more Mad Max films.
But again, there are no signs of development on potential future Mad Max films which is a shame considering how good Fury Road was and how Hardy was able to take the mantle from Gibson in role of the anti-hero.
Star Trek 4

In 2009, J.J. Abrams rebooted the Star Trek franchise, which was a prequel to the original series starring William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy, but yet offered up an alternate timeline that allowed Abrams freedom to do whatever he want without completing throwing away the history of the franchise's five previous TV series and 10 movies.
The reboot was a success and since then there have been two sequels, Star Trek Into Darkness and Star Trek Beyond.
However, a 4th Star Trek film with Zachary Quinto as Spock and Chris Pine as Captain Kirk is in doubt, especially with Pine asking for a raise to come back for a 4th film.
Despite this, two Star Trek movies are in development right now, with one being helmed by Quentin Tarantino and the other by S.J. Clarkson.
It is said that the Clarkson project is ahead of Tarantino's and could feature Chris Hemsworth, who played George Kirk, father to Chris Pine's character in the 2009 movie.
If Paramount(the studio who owns Star Trek) and Pine come to some sort of agreement and Hemsworth can be signed on, then a 4th Star Trek(or 14th if you count the previous 10) could be on the horizon.
Man of Steel 2

Man of Steel came out in 2013 and was set to be the launching pad of DC Comics' foray into a shared cinematic universe amongst its famous comic book characters such as Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman.

But after the polarizing reaction to Batman v Superman and poor performance at the box office of Justice League, Warner Brothers and DC Comics have been rethinking what do with the DCEU(DC Expanded Universe).

While DC and Warner Brothers are set with a Wonder Woman sequel to come out in 2020 and are developing a Batman movie, there are currently no plans for another Superman solo movie starring Henry Cavill, who appears to be on his way out of the DCEU.

That is a shame because many fans, including myself, believe Cavill has done a great job as Superman and that he just needs the right material to get a possible Superman franchise off the ground.

Plus, I want see how Superman is doing since his resurrection in Justice League and if in fact he has become the optimist that comic book fans have been clamoring for, instead of the conflicted, brooding version that was given by director Zach Snyder in his previous three appearances.

Indiana Jones With Chris Pratt

When Disney bought LucasFilm back in 2012, they acquired not only the rights to the Star Wars franchise but also the Indiana Jones franchise.

While Disney has made several Star Wars films, they have yet to make an Indiana Jones film, though one is in development set to come out in the summer of 2022.

The man who has played the archaeologist with the fedora and whip, Harrison Ford, will be pushing 80 and I think Disney would want to milk the Indiana Jones franchise just like they have done with Star Wars.

If Disney wanted more Indiana Jones films, they could go make a set of movies set between Last Crusade and Crystal Skull, exploring Indy's adventures during that time.

For that, they would have to bring an younger actor and my first choice for that would be Chris Pratt.

The man is in top shape even though he's approaching 40 and has become one of the biggest stars in Hollywood with the success of Guardians of the Galaxy and Jurassic World.

Essentially, Disney could replicate the formula from the first three Indiana Jones movies with a different female in each movie without discarding the events of Crystal Skull.

Plus, there was the short-lived The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles TV series back in the early 1990s, so an actor playing Indy other than Ford would not be that mind-blowing.
