Winona Ryder, 'Heathers' Sequel, Blah, Blah, Blah...

"There is a sequel in the works. I swear to God [it's happening]. But for some reason Dan [Waters, writer] and Michael [Lehmann, director] don't want to talk about it. There is a story, and Christian Slater has agreed to come back as a kind of Obi-Wan character." [EW/US Weekly/Empire] Winona Ryder has been spouting off about a supposed "Heathers 2" film for years and now she's talking about a project she just admitted she shouldn't be talking about. That'll help.

Not everyone hold their breath at once for this one to happen or we're all going to pass out and there won't be any internets for a few hours. Why for baby jesus' sake, when a remake/reboot is made 20 years later does the original character always have to come back as a "Obi-Wan character." Enough already. We put money down this never happens. What's the point?

Everyone should download the (free) Creative Screenwriting podcast interview with Daniel Waters where he basically laughs off the Heathers 2 rumors and, from what I can recall, makes it sound like it's something Ryder really wants to do and he always just smiles and nods, knowing it'll never happen.

Yeah, if you go to iTunes and search Creative Writing Magazine, it's the 57th podcast. Ignore the host, he's kind of a douche. Waters is great though.

I'm glad you mentioned the host, he almost killed me he's so obnoxious. And god, it's Creative Screenwriting magazine, it's not like these guys have TV-like personalities working for them, that's a solid magazine of insight (or at least was 10 years ago when i read it often), where the fuck did they dig up that guy?

Unfortunately he's the founder and editor-in-chief, I think. He comes soooo close to ruining the interviews, it's painful. If they got almost anyone else to do the interviews, they'd be so much better off. There's still a lot of great info in those interviews, but man that guy blows.

Frightening. I've said it once, I'll say it again: you have good insights, you should contribute.
