More than 35 years have flown by since Gremlins 2: The New Batch caused chaos in theatres around the world. And while the sequel wasn't exactly a box office hit, rumours of a potential Gremlins 3 have never really gone away.
Now it seems the long-awaited sequel is closer than ever, but a certain Steven Spielberg is holding things up. Zach Galligan, who played Billy in the first two films, revealed at a convention in Manchester that Warner Bros. is sitting on a finished script for Gremlins 3 and is eager to start production. The catch? Spielberg needs to read and approve the script first, and he's apparently dragging his feet.
The moment, captured in a now-viral TikTok clip, also features Galligan explaining why the project has suddenly gained traction:
"You can thank the success of Beetlejuice 2"
So... are you ready for more Gremlin mayhem?
