‘Prometheus 2’ Moving Forward, Perhaps Without Damon Lindelof; ‘Ted 2’ Possible At Universal

In a quick rundown of sequel possibilities for many of this year’s films, THR has a couple big notes.

One is that Universal and Media Rights Capital are likely to want a sequel to Ted, although the real choice to do that or not would be based on the interest of writer/director/voice actor Seth MacFarlane. He has said “I’d be open to making Ted 2,” but that’s all we’ve got on that front.

There is mention of further Batman options and of a possible prequel or sequel to Magic Mike at Warner Bros., but there’s really no hard and fast news on that front. There is also mention of likely sequels for The Amazing-Spider Man and 21 Jump Street with possible additional Total Recall (wha?) and Men in Black films, none of which comes as a surprise.
