When asked if the original cast members will return, he said: "Hopefully all of them."
The 1985 cult classic, which follows a group of boys who embark on an adventure to find treasure, helped launch the careers of actors Josh Brolin and Corey Feldman. There's no word if Steven Spielberg or Chris Columbus, the film's original executive producer and screenwriter, respectively, are on board.
In 2010, Brolin told Extra TV a script was believed to be in the works, but that there were no plans of getting it produced anytime soon.
“People keep asking me over and over about a sequel,” Brolin said at the time. “I saw Steven Spielberg [the film's producer] on the street about a month and a half ago, and I asked the reality. I hear there is a script, yes, but there’s no talk about doing a Goonies sequel at this very moment. And that’s the first time I’ve been truthful about that answer… ever.”
