Chris Columbus Talks About The "Twisted and Dark" Script For Gremlins 3
We've known that Chris Columbus has been working on a script for Gremlins 3 for a few years. Well, he has a completed script for the film and he recently talked about it and revealed some details in an interview with /Film.
This is a project that I've been pretty excited about. I'd love to revisit this story and the characters that fill it. We previously learned that story would take 30 years after the original film and it would continue that story. We also heard that Gremlins star Zack Galligan would reprise his role as Billy.
When talking about the script that has been written, Columbus says:
“I’m really proud of the script. It is as twisted and dark as anything, so we’ll see. It’s always a budgetary conversation when we’re going to shoot it. I wanted to go back to the really twisted sensibility of the first movie.
