Why? A sequel to Casablanca? Or any truly epic film? The sequels I read about always want to be “diverse” - as in McHale’s Navy where Carter is played by an African-American. Or say Wild Wild West where the lead is played by Will Smith. Any sequel today has to be political correct. There are those films like Iron Man which work, or Sherlock Holmes with Robert Downey Jr. which were great. But please don’t make sequels to great films.

But of course, I eagerly await a sequel to Gone With The Wind with Denzell Washington playing Rhett.

It was a well made movie, but it should have been called something else. It had nothing to do with Sherlock Holmes. I doubt whoever that writer was had ever read a single Sherlock Holmes story.
