10 Upcoming Movie Sequels That Are Completely Unnecessary

10. Den of Thieves 2

Gerard Butler has settled comfortably into his domain as one of the B-level action movie's biggest stars, and while there's always something strangely comforting about watching the gruff Scotsman barrel his way through an army of faceless goons, Den of Thieves is hardly crying out for a sequel.

The first movie seemed to reach a happy and pretty definitive ending, and it largely flew under the radar after earning a little over $80m at the box office and receiving reviews that could generously be described as mixed at best.

Den of Thieves didn't have a shred of originality about it, but Butler can't rely on those Various Things Have Fallen sequels forever so from his point of view at least, turning another one of his generic starring vehicles into a franchise makes sense.
