‘Labyrinth’ Sequel in the Works With ‘Nosferatu’ Director Robert Eggers
Labyrinth fans, get ready to rejoice … or cringe, because a new sequel to the 1986 cult classic is coming, with Variety confirming that Nosferatu director Robert Eggers is set to write and direct the sequel. The original film, starring David Bowie as the iconic Goblin King, was a creative musical fantasy from the mind of Jim Henson that initially bombed at the box office, but has since gained a loyal following, with fans especially loving the late Bowie’s performance.
Here’s what we know about the sequel so far.

The Henson family will also be involved in the sequel, as Jim Henson’s children, Brian and Lisa, are set to produce, with Brian executive producing. Eggers will write with his writing partner Sjón, while Chris Columbus and Eleanor Columbus will also produce the highly anticipated film.
Last fall, the film proved that it was still beloved as it went on a concert tour, playing on a big screen alongside a band, which performed beautiful music to create a more immersive experience.
