Chris Pine drops major hint: 'Dungeons & Dragons' sequel is looking like a sure thing

Nov 20, 2023 3:57 PM

Gaming enthusiasts are abuzz with the possibility of a sequel to "Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves" as Chris Pine expresses confidence in its return and shows eagerness to reprise his role as Edgin Darvis. Following the theatrical debut of Honor Among Thieves, the film received notable praise from critics, even though its box office performance didn't match expectations. The fantasy film features a talented ensemble cast, including Michelle Rodriguez and Regé-Jean Page, with a mix of humor and adventure that earned it a solid review from IGN, comparing it with the likes of The Lord of the Rings and Game of Thrones.

Paramount's Brian Robbins has indicated interest in a follow-up film, on the condition of reducing the budget from the first outing. This news is particularly intriguing as it comes during a period of renewed interest in the Dungeons & Dragons franchise, with the successful launch of Larian's Baldur’s Gate 3, which garnered a standing ovation at The Game Awards. The franchise's surge in popularity, bolstered by positive reactions from both fans and critics alike, suggests a fertile ground for further cinematic adventures. IGN provided a review score of 7/10 for "Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves," hinting at the potential for an expanding on-screen universe for this beloved role-playing game.
