00:00A Labyrinth sequel is finally heading our way. Fede Alvarez, the filmmaker behind last year's

00:14sleeper hit Don't Breathe, is tackling the follow-up to the 1986 Jim Henson movie that

00:19starred David Bowie. The Hollywood Reporter confirms that Alvarez will write the script

00:23with Jay Basu and direct the project, which is set up at TriStar. The two are currently

00:28developing Girl in the Spider's Web, the sequel to Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, and plan to tackle

00:32the Labyrinth project after that. Lisa Henson of the Jim Henson Company will produce. The original

00:38Labyrinth tells the story of a teenager, played by Jennifer Connelly in one of her first roles.

00:42She has to navigate a fantastical maze in order to save her young brother, who has been kidnapped

00:47by a goblin king, played by Bowie. Did I mention it's a musical?

00:51Everything I've done, I've done for you.

00:56Labyrinth was the last film directed by Henson. It was executive produced by George Lucas and

01:01written by Monty Python member Terry Jones. Insiders say the new project is not a remake

01:06nor a reboot, but rather a continuation of the story set in the rich Henson universe.

01:10However, the goblin king will not be represented in the new film. How do you feel that they're

01:15finally making a Labyrinth sequel? Sound off in the comments. I'm Tiffany Taylor for The Hollywood
