Does this mean that the movie franchise is officially over? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

At least for the time being with the TV reboot coming? Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle got mostly negative reviews and underperformed at the box office at least domestically. Plus you're going to have to get around the deaths of Bernie Mac (it's going to be awfully hard to convince Bill Murray to come back as Bosley) and John Forsythe.

I think, at this point, that the "Charlie's Angels" films are over as far as the original crew is concerned.

Drew Barrymore and Cameron Diaz have said that they wanted to do a third installment way before the tv-reboot was officially announced.

McG also was said to be coming back to direct but at the time he dropped out do to Terminator: Salvation.

Also, Bernie Mac's death and Bill Murray's refusal to come back complicates things more.

Another thing is that everyone has aged... Diaz and Barrymore are pushing 40 now and Lucy Liu is 42.

It looks like they scrapped the movie plans to focus entirely on the tv-reboot so we have to wait and see on how it does.
