[NEWS - The Amazing Maurice gets a Sequel!]
The Amazing Maurice adaptation is to get a sequel called The Amazing Maurice - The Waters of Life.
The English-language feature, being made as a Sky Original, reunites the creative team behind the first feature: director Toby Genkel and producers Emely Christians, Andrew Baker, Rob Wilkins and Robert Chandler.
Genkel will have a new co-director on the film, to be announced soon, with his collaborator on the first feature, Florian Westermann, committed to another project.
The sequel script is being written by Giles New and Keiron Self, using Pratchett's characters – led by the self-proclaimed “most amazing cat in the world” – but creating an original story about a perilous quest to find the legendary Waters of Life.
A new character joining the adventure is a furless cat named Admiral Katz.
The original film's voice cast included Hugh Laurie, Emilia Clarke, David Thewlis and Gemma Arterton, and it is hoped they will return for the sequel.
Announced on Screen Daily today, The Amazing Maurice - The Waters of Life is due to be delivered by 2027.
