25 Huge Movies Disney Just Cancelled

18. The Heat 2

Though it was notable for having one of the single worst photoshop fail posters ever, The Heat was a genuine comedy delight thanks to the odd couple chemistry of Melissa McCarthy and Sandra Bullock (in full Lethal Weapon spirit), a good story and an excellent supporting cast including the likes of Marlon Wayans, Michael Rapaport and Bill Burr.

There was talk of a sequel a few years ago and it was apparently on Fox's slate before Disney threw all of these movies in a burlap sack into the river. Back in 2017, Paul Feig revealed that a sequel had actually been written and would riff on The Silence Of The Lambs, meshing horror and comedy, but Sandra Bullock nixed the idea. The spoilsport.

Since then, it's obviously just kicked around waiting for a revival, given that it made Fox a lot of money for its $40m budget.
