![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() It was one of a handful of would-be "next Twilight" entries that didn't quite take off over the last year. The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones opened with just $14 million over its Wednesday-Sunday opening weekend back in late August of this summer. Yet, against all odds and arguably against all logic, Hollywood Reporter is, uh, reporting that it's getting a sequel! The Mortal Instruments: City Of Bones received neither positive reviews nor box office large enough to justify its production and marketing expenses. Good reviews are a plus, but the key idea is that your first film making lots of money in relation to your budget is a sign that there is perhaps a marketplace for an additional installment. It's a general rule of thumb in Hollywood that if you want a sequel to a given film, said initial installment has to be relatively financially successful. ![]()
