Contracts expiring just means that when the sequel does get made there will need to be new contracts. That's maybe a few hours time on behalf of legal and some phone calls to agents sprinkled with insincere expressions of affection. No worries.

I would like to believe that it was that simple.. but if it was.. why would there ever be contracts like this in the first place?

Quote:Originally posted by CitizenofJanetown: Fingers and toes crossed for the sequel but im still a little un-sure whether or not i actually want one. We've all come to know and love these characters from watching the series and the first movie. And even losing one was a huge thing. I dont know about anybody else but at the end of the movie right after Mal had his final conversation with the operative and was talking with Zoe, that ship suddenly had a big feeling of emptiness about it with Wash missing. Him missing from the sequel would be HUGE. As well as that i wouldnt want to risk the sequel being bad. Right now the whole thing is still amazing and magical to us all because of the way we were left. If the sequel is made and then proceeds to bomb its may ruin a lot of peoples' love for Firefly. Leave everyone with sour feelings about everything because it was the last new addition that people saw. But on a more optimistic note ive got the perfect solution for assuring the sequel. Sense the sequel is primarily counting on the sales of the CE DvD's everybody go out and buy 500 copys at full price and we'll have our sequel in no time. :D

I would like to believe that it was that simple.. but if it was.. why would there ever be contracts like this in the first place? I'm not saying you couldn't make new contracts.. but then it's up to each actor's willingness and ability to agree to it. I have to believe that they all would be willing.. but that doesn't mean they would have the ability to. And how hard is Universal willing to try, at that point, on a movie that is already shown that it won't be a blockbuster? No matter how incredible it would be. Sure.. we all know it will make them a small fortune in the long run.. but studios don't seem to care about that. Smaug.. still nervous..

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

We hold, we spread the word and Joss will see to it the story is told.

Quote:This is precisely why it IS a hindrance. The actors likely are locked into particular deals under that original option. Once expired, some of their agents will insist upon more money than those original deals. Given the tepid performance of Serenity at the box office, it's doubtful Universal would want to shell out more money for the actors' contracts.
Quote:I'm not that nervous about it. I'm sure Joss will continue the story in whatever format he can get his hands on.

Quote:Originally posted by Smaug: Well.. Sept. 30th has come and gone.. All I can do now is wait for a month or so.. to hear weither or not they greenlit a sequel to Serenity. If they did.. we might not hear about it for a few weeks.. I can still hope.. for a little longer.. All I can think is that if the Sept. 30th deadline was real.. and Universal didn't greenlight it.. that's probably it for ever seeing these actors all together playing these characters ever again..
