Director Richard Donner, producer Steven Spielberg have purchased the rights to a sequel to the hit family film Goonies and are trying to get Warner Bros. to greenlight the project, according to MTV.
The sequel would reunite the original cast, which included Sean Astin, Corey Feldman, Josh Brolin, and others, with a new bunch of suburban kids, Donner said.
"The new group is called the Groonies, because they happen to live in a town where [Data], the Chinese kid, lives ... and he's got an electronics repair shop and all the kids hang out at his shop. He has this Chinese accent and he calls the Goonies the Groonies, and so the new kids call themselves the Groonies, until they get into a situation where the old Goonies have to save the new Groonies, or vice versa." I dunno about this one... Groonies? Ugh.
