10 Films That Deserve Sequels

6. The Truman Show

The prescience of The Truman Show is reason enough to warrant a sequel. The film, about a man who unknowingly lives his entire life in front of cameras, was released in 1998. The first series of Big Brother, in which contestants do exactly that (though with foreknowledge), aired the following year. The options for a sequel are endless. The film ends with Jim Carrey's Truman figuring out that he is in a TV show and deciding to break free. He leaves the giant set that has been his home for his entire life and heads out into the real world, where he hopes to find the woman he loves. Would the sequel show Truman living in society, plagued by his unwanted fame and past life? Would he have returned to the safety of his manufactured world? What happened to the woman playing his wife? Answer these questions, Hollywood.
