The Rock Hints at a Possible Race to Witch Mountain Sequel

To be honest with you, I don’t see how Disney wouldn’t make a sequel to “Race to Witch Mountain”, and according to one of the film’s stars, the original did leave room for more stories. Released earlier this year, the movie earned $67 million at the domestic box office, and went on to make $106 million worldwide. That sounds like a recipe for sequels to me. While doing the press junket for his animated sci-fi comedy “Planet 51″, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson said as much.

He told Collider:

I’m not quite too sure about a Witch Mountain sequel. Great success breeds a lot of things, including sequels. The storyline was set up for a sequel, so we’ll see. I’m not ruling it out. I just can’t speak to it because I don’t know. I haven’t spoken to any of the guys up at Disney about it.

From there, The Rock automatically switched over to promoting his other kid-friendly comedy “Tooth Fairy” like the seasoned pro he is.

I didn’t see “Race to Witch Mountain” when it first came out, but I did eventually get around to seeing it. It’s not an entirely bad movie, but it was clearly made with a kiddie adventure flavor in mind. This was a Disney movie, after all.

I wouldn’t mind a sequel, though, as long as they bring Carla Gugino back, too.

Sequel? Sure, why not. Beats Tooth Fairy 2.
