10 Teased Movies We Need To Admit Are Not Going To Happen

6. Final Destination 6

You might have heard in early 2019 that there's a new Final Destination being worked on by the Saw team. That might be exciting, but it's not the Final Destination 6 news that might have been expected elsewhere.

For a long time, rumours swirled of a sixth in the gimmick-heavy horror series with Tony Todd's Death-like character at its heart. And if you're looking for a continuation, you're barking up the wrong tree, because Todd knows why it'll never be made:

“I am [surprised] but I know why there hasn’t been [another sequel],” Todd said. “It’s really an expensive film to shoot. Just getting whatever accident set pieces, like for example part two with the whole traffic accident, that took a good five weeks to shoot and at least 20 million bucks. So there are other films like the Annabelle films which just focuses on a doll that they can shoot for a lot cheaper and still make money... I’m pretty sure that ship has sailed but who knows?” Todd said. “You never know. It was a good one while we had it.”

Sadly, Final Destination 5 was a series low at the box office too, so it was never a slamdunk we'd get a follow-up even with unanswered questions.

And sure, there may be a reboot, but there's no way it will continue in the same style. Those films were simply too expensive and the only benefit of rebooting the series rather than continuing it is cost-cutting through a reset. Whatever emerges on the other side will most likely be Final Destination in name only.
