In 2016, on a Reddit AMA, a fan asked Jerry Seinfeld if he would star in a Bee Movie sequel.
Cast[]
- Jerry Seinfeld as Barry B. Benson (refused to reprise his role)
It was never confirmed whether the original cast members would return to their roles.
Plot[]
The plot is currently unknown, however it would be somewhat similar to the first Bee Movie film.
Why It Was Cancelled[]
- Jerry Seinfeld refused to star in a sequel to Bee Movie (mentioned earlier).
- DreamWorks had ran out of ideas to make the sequel.
- His reply says “I considered it this spring for a solid six hours. There’s a fantastic energy now for some reason, on the internet particularly. Tumblr, people brought my attention to. I actually did consider it, but then I realized it would make Bee Movie 1 less iconic. But my kids want me to do it, a lot of people want me to do it. A lot of people that don’t know what animation is want me to do it. If you have any idea what animation is, you’d never do it.”
- Although Bee Movie recieved mixed reviews from critics and audiences, it failed at the box office.
Result[]
- The original Paramount Pictures version has been permanently canceled.
- Bee Movie is a stand alone film.
