15 Announced Movies That Are Destined For Development Hell

15. Bill & Ted 3

Status So Far: A third Bill and Ted movie was announced in 2010 (almost twenty years after the previous film, Bogus Journey), and Keanu Reeves confirmed in 2013 that the script was ready, but they're still trying to package it right to get proper studio interest. Why It's Destined For Development Hell: Because if Bill and Ted 3 was really ever going to happen, it should not have been this difficult to make. The first two movies were financial successes, so why is it taking so long to get a deal made with a studio? Pretty much every update over the last few years has been a vague "it's happening, we're just getting it ready", and though Reeves and Alex Winter's ages aren't really a problem here (the script draws attention to the time gap), it sounds like the project could just stagnate like this forever more, even though so many fans are desperate to see it. Given the budget required for a film of this nature, Kickstarter won't be of much use either.
