15 Announced Movies That Will Probably Never Happen
10. 300 Part III
What We Know: 300's belated 2014 spin-off Rise of an Empire did surprisingly well at the box office, so it didn't take long for the original movie's director, Zack Snyder, to posit the idea of making more diverse movies under the 300 umbrella, such as during the Revolutionary War or set in China. Nothing yet on a writer, director or cast.
Why It Won't Happen: It's a neat idea in a way, even if it's quite blatantly stretching the branding potential of 300 to near-breaking point. But given how difficult it's going to be to keep this series going without even a tangential link to King Leonidas, it's tough to imagine it ever actually getting made.
When the "300" name is being used for things that have no kinship with the original movie, it's easy to see audiences turning on it big time. In short, don't count on it.
