The Goonies 2: Goldbergs Creator Has Been Writing a Script for 9 Years

Adam F. Goldberg, the creator of the ABC series The Goldbergs, has revealed that he has been working on a script for The Goonies 2 to pitch to Richard Donner, the director of the original 1985 adventure comedy. Goldberg might not have found One-Eyed Willy's rich stuff but he could be about to strike gold anyway, as he recently announced that he had set-up a meeting with Donner to discuss a potential Goonies sequel before the coronavirus (COVID-19) lockdown. Taking to Twitter shortly after Josh Gad's reunion special with the original cast of The Goonies, Goldberg assured fans that the sequel would happen "when life resumes," as he shared a photo of his script for "The Goonies II: Never Say Die," which he has been writing for the past nine years. At the foot of the script's title page, it states "Richard Donner Presentation" alongside, what we assume, would have been the date of the since-cancelled meeting.

The illustration, created by Michael Barnard, features a large skull with doors for teeth, set back inside a shadowy cave. The skull is engraved with Spanish writing, which translates to "One mistake shall rain down fear / Feel the wrath of the Devil's Tears." At the forefront of the image, a female is pictured holding a treasure map with several silhouetted figures just ahead of her. While the artwork offers fans a glimpse into Goldberg's vision, no further story details have been shared at this time.

One of the leaders of this crusade appears to be Josh Gad, who recently reunited the core cast of treasure-hunting troublemakers, all in the name of charity, on a special episode of his Reunited Apart YouTube show.
