After more than thirty years of silence, the most adorably lethal creatures in cinema history are about to wreak havoc once again.
Gremlins 3 is official: it will be released on November 19, 2027, marking the return of two legendary names — Chris Columbus, director and screenwriter of the first film, and Steven Spielberg, once again as executive producer.
Warner Bros. has confirmed the project, and for fans, it's as if someone just reignited the chaos machine under the Christmas tree.
Columbus, now with a few more wrinkles but the same creative spark in his eyes, confessed that "we haven't found the right script yet."
Translation: the film is in active development, but the goal is clear — to honor the spirit of the original cult classic, that perfect mix of holiday horror, dark humor, and visual anarchy.
Apparently, Gremlins 3 won't be a soulless reboot but a true spiritual sequel.
And while the return of Zach Galligan, the iconic Billy Peltzer, is not yet confirmed, the director doesn't rule out some nostalgic appearances "for longtime fans."
Behind the scenes, the burning question for enthusiasts is: will animatronics return, or will CGI win the day?
The idea of seeing Gizmo and company crafted by hand, with that charmingly awkward yet unsettling craftsmanship, already has purists dreaming.
The last time we saw them was in 1990, in Gremlins 2: The New Batch, a delirious sequel that poked fun at itself and the world of cinema.
Now, more than ever, it seems like the right time to bring back that controlled chaos that only the Gremlins can unleash.
Between nostalgia, horror, and wicked laughs, the new chapter promises to be a return to the roots with a contemporary twist.
And while we await the first trailer, remember the golden rule: don't get them wet, don't feed them after midnight, and most importantly… don't trust their smile. 🦊
