There hasn't been a lot of updates about "The Goonies 2" since it was first proposed in 2013. One of the original actors, Sean Astin, recently confirmed that the movie would really happen, but he wasn't sure if he would appear in the sequel.

While promoting his upcoming appearance at the 2015 Wizard World Tulsa in October, Astin assured fans that "The Goonies 2" would definitely happen, although it had already been thirty years since the original film was released in the summer of 1985. "I have said and will always say, that it's not a question of if, but rather of when the sequel gets made. The precise makeup of it, I have no idea," the actor said. However, he was hesitant that he would reprise his role in the sequel. "Whether I will be in it, no idea. Whether they would even want the original cast in it, no idea. But it doesn't matter," Astin shared.

The 44-year-old actor went on promising fans that the second movie would be satisfying. "It's bigger, it's actually bigger than everybody. It's bigger than even Steven [Spielberg], who created it. It's bigger than Richard Donner, who breathed such strong life into it," he said. "It's now a part of American cultural lore, and the studio has a lot to gain from promoting it, so you can take it to the bank that people will get to enjoy it more."

There have been rumblings that "The Goonies 2" would feature the grown up versions of the former treasure hunters, but with Astin unsure he would be back, it seems like the idea is merely a rumor. Meanwhile, people speculated that the second movie would be a reboot that has no ties to the original film besides similarities in story. "The Goonies" was directed by Richard Donner with Spielberg attached to produce.
