Ferris Bueller 2: Another Day Off

Ferris Bueller 2: Another Day Off
Ferris Bueller 2: Another Day Off is a sequel to the 1986 film "Ferris Bueller's Day Off". It was going to be directed by John Hughes, with the original cast reprising their roles, but as much older people.

Plot
Ferris, now around 40 years old, is suffering a mid-life crisis. To try to relive his youth, he gets help from Cameron, now his manager, and they take a day off from work.

Why it was cancelled

 * 1) Director John Hughes said that the first movie was "about a singular time in your life" and that this movie would be a lame hash of events.
 * 2) John Hughes wasn't a big fan of sequels.
 * 3) Matthew Broderick, who plays the main character, wasn't interested in returning for a sequel.
 * 4) John Hughes passed away in 2009.

Results

 * It is highly unlikely that there will ever be a sequel now, since Matthew Broderick is 57 years old and John Hughes is dead.
