Paul Feig hopes to make The School for Good and Evil sequels

Paul Feig hopes to make sequels to “The School for Good and Evil”. The 60-year-old director has helmed the new Netflix fantasy film that is based on Soman Chainani’s novel of the same name, and hopes to take the story forward as there are six books in the series to adapt. Feig told “Entertainment Weekly”: “The goal is definitely for this to be a franchise.

“That’s the plan going forward, just take all the material of these books, and hopefully make a franchise out of it. We love the characters, love the world. The books are super fun and very dense.

The “Bridesmaids” director says there was a lot that he still wanted to explore on screen as he couldn’t fit everything from the first book into the film.
Feig explained: “Look, if we were to shoot everything in the first book, the movie would cost billions of dollars.

“You take the things that the audience, the readers, and the fans love from the books and then you retrofit them in a way to still make it your own but in a way that they’re going to be happy
The director continued: “You’re also going to have an audience who doesn’t know the books, or an audience who’s just experiencing it without having to know the material – I’m very against any movies where you have to know things before you go there.”

Feig wanted to make sure that fans who had never read “The School for Good and Evil” could easily understand the film.

He said: “It’s fun to watch a comic-book movie if you’ve grown up with the comic books and you know all those characters because there are all these Easter eggs.
