‘Dungeons & Dragons’ Writer-Director Reveals Sequel Has Been Written, Hasn’t Been Made For “Financial Reasons”

After three years, Dungeons & Dragons has another campaign in store for fans of the 2023 movie… if it can just get the greenlight.

Jonathan Goldstein, who co-wrote and co-directed Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves with John Francis Daley, revealed at Comic-Con that they wrote a sequel to their 2023 adaptation of the tabletop role-playing game.

“We actually wrote a sequel to Dungeons & Dragons. We were hired to write it,” Goldstein told ScreenRant. “I don’t know that it will see the light of day for a number of financial reasons. They’re expensive movies to make, but it’d be great fun to do it. We love that cast, and we think we wrote something that fans would like.

Despite a solid 91% critic rating and 92% from fans on Rotten Tomatoes, Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves grossed $205M worldwide on a $150M budget.

While a live-action Dungeons & Dragons series was ordered for Paramount+ in 2023, the streamer opted not to move forward with the Rawson Marshall Thurber-created show the following year. Hasbro has since shopped the project around, finding a new home at Netflix with a new iteration, entitled The Forgotten Realmsfrom Shawn Levy and writer-showrunner Drew Crevello.
