JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH Sequel on the Way

From ComingSoon.net:

"New Line is reteaming with Walden Media and ContraFilm for a sequel to Journey to the Center of the Earth, reports Variety.

The sequel is based on Richard Outten's script Mysterious Travels: The Lost Map of Treasure Island, in which Prof. Trevor Anderson and his nephew embark on a journey to a mysterious island that was the subject of three classic novels (Jules Verne's 'Mysterious Island,' Robert Louis Stevenson's 'Treasure Island' and Jonathan Swift's 'Gulliver's Travels').

Journey to the Center of the Earth, starring Brendan Fraser, Josh Hutcherson and Anita Briem, earned $101 million domestically and another $140 million overseas this summer.

Eric Brevig, who directed 'Journey' but has not yet committed to helm 'Mysterious Travels,' is working with Outten to develop the script for the sequel."

'Bout dang time! I've been waiting on a sequel to this great 3D movie. But where's Hannah from the original movie...? And what about Jack Black's Gulliver's Travels?
