It\u2019s finally real: Gremlins 3 is officially happening<\/a>. After years of development hell (if only there was a name for creatures who could be blamed for such problems in the system) the Mogwai \u2013 and presumably, their Gremlin counterparts \u2013 will be returning to cinema screens for the first time since 1990\u2019s unhinged Gremlins 2: The New Batch<\/a>. And to prove it, we have a very, very short teaser, just a teeny-tiny taste \u2013 but one that offers your very first look at Gizmo\u2019s comeback:<\/p>\n

There\u2019s not much to go on there \u2013 but boy, does it feel good to see our favourite Mogwai back in action. For the deep Gremlins fans, there is something notable in Gizmo\u2019s appearance, which looks closer to the original Chris Walas design in the original film<\/a> than the tweaked Rick Baker design in The New Batch. Details on Gremlins 3 are scarce, but the film will be directed by Chris Columbus, who penned the first movie, with Steven Spielberg back as producer. Columbus has worked on the script with Final Destination: Bloodlines<\/a> directors Zach Lipovsky and Adam B. Stein.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s currently unknown whether Zach Galligan will return \u2013 but given that he reacted to the teaser with a \u2018looking eyes\u2019 emoji, we can speculate that Billy Peltzer might be involved in the mayhem.<\/p>\n

What we do know is, there\u2019s a bit of a longer wait than expected. Gremlins 3 has a new release date of October 6, 2028 \u2013 having previously been expected in November 2027. But hey, we\u2019ve waited this long already. Let the carnage commence!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It\u2019s finally real: Gremlins 3 is officially happening.
