7 Movie Sequels You Forgot You Wanted
3. Nacho Libre 2
Jack Black’s religious luchador in Nacho Libre, is as quotable as he is bad at wrestling, making the prospect of a possible sequel as tasty as eagle eggs. Perhaps there is less of a demand for this film as some on this list, but for the enthusiastic fans of the original, they could dream of nothing sweeter.
Since the early noughties, Black hasn’t been able to recapture his former glories with a string of lukewarm attempts, namely Year One and Gulliver’s Travels. His career has been held up with a supporting role in Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, and despite dwindling popularity, the ever-present Kung-Fu Panda franchise.
Similarly, the once inventive writer Jared Hess has failed to create a hit as memorable as Libre or his previous work Napoleon Dynamite, so maybe a return to one of one of his former characters would not only appease the fans, but could also jumpstart his career.
Nacho Libre is regularly quoted by its fans, and a sequel could serve to add to the dictionary of dubiously PC, unquestionably hilarious quips.
