2020 will see the arrival of many movies, most of them sequels – but there are a lot of long overdue ones. The remakes, reboots, and sequels trend has been dominating the movie industry for a while now, with some of these being big hits and others not so much. Many of them weren’t well received when they were announced, but ended up being a pleasant surprise for viewers, and there are others that only marked the end of their franchises (a moment of silence for Terminator: Dark Fate).
2019 had a good number of sequels, such as Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. 2020 has a bunch of sequels lined up, but what makes them different to those released in 2019 is that they are mostly long overdue sequels.
Many sequels have served to reboot franchises that had been inactive for years, such as David Gordon Green’s Halloween, and the same will happen with some of the sequels to be released in 2020.
Long Overdue Movie Sequels Coming Out in 2020
The list of movies releasing in 2020 has a big number of long overdue sequels – some of them are highly anticipated titles, others not so much. First in line is Legally Blonde movie in 10 years (or 16, as Legally Blondes was a spinoff and didn’t star Witherspoon).
Bill & Ted Face The Music, 28 years after Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey was released. This new adventure will see Bill and Ted being warned by a visitor from the future of the need for them to create a song that will save the entire universe.
Last but not least, is Trevor and Phoebe are Egon’s grandchildren. All these sequels should have happened years ago, but if they offer interesting stories with well developed characters, viewers won’t mind that they took more than a decade to arrive.
