After six years since the conclusion of the Maze Runner original film trilogy, 20th Century Studios is set to reboot the franchise. The new film will be a cinematic continuation of the original trilogy's story, rather than a retelling or direct sequel.
The reboot will be penned by Jack Palgen, known for his work on Alien: Covenant and Transcendence, while Wes Ball, the director of the original trilogy, will serve as a producer.
The Maze Runner, based on James Dashner's sci-fi dystopian novels, follows a group of amnesiac kids trying to escape a mysterious maze, battling mechanical monsters, and taking on a secret government organization.
The original Maze Runner film, starring Dylan O'Brien, was released in 2014, with the final installment, Maze Runner: The Death Cure, hitting theaters in 2018.
While details on the new film's plot remain scarce, fans can expect a fresh take on the beloved story that captivated audiences in the original trilogy.
Stay tuned for more updates on the upcoming Maze Runner reboot!
