Wild Hogs sequel bursts into flames
Who said that every box office bomb ended up getting a sequel greenlit and made? This is not the case when it comes to the once-upon-a-time possibility of Wild Hogs 2: Bachelor’s Ride being made. One of the thanks goes to the box office disappointment that Old Dogs became, along with the cleaning of house that Rich Ross has been doing. A couple of days ago we reported that Wedding Banned got the ax, and it seems to be the newest trend in the Mouse House.
The strangest thing about this situation is that not only was the original cast lined up to end up being in this picture again but the top reason why it got scrapped. Even though the feature was under Disney’s Touchstone Pictures, the understanding in the community is that getting a production start on a Mouse House film will be a huge challenge if it doesn’t squarely fit the Disney family branded model (Variety).
With the word ‘bachelor’ in the title of the now-dead film, you had to assume that a little bit of bachelor party would have some what been pushing it for Disney. Then again it makes you wonder what Rich Ross really has in store for Disney.
