1971’sShaftis one of the seminal Blaxploitation films of the era. 2000’sShaftis a forgettable remake that did fine at the box office, pulling in a little over $100 million worldwide off a $47 million budget, but the fact that a sequel has taken over 17 years should tell you that no one was really rushing to turn it into a franchise. However, Paramount hopes that there’s still juice left in the character and they’ve moving forward withSon of Shaft....

UPDATE: Damon Lindelofhas told USA Todaythat he has no interest in a second season and has told the story he wanted to tell, but has “given my blessing” to HBO if they want to move on without him. It seems unlikely that HBO will do so, which means a Season 2 ofWatchmenprobably won’t be happening. Original story below. Will there be moreWatchmenon HBO?
