i think that the great story died with Mario Puzo.Assuming he had something like a story.If so it will be like novels of Mark W..Someone will continue on Puzo's masterpiece but eventually screw it up like Mark W.

"MTV: Can you categorically say you never will make another "Godfather" film?

Coppola: I don't own "The Godfather" and I never thought there should be more than one. It wasn't a serial. For me, the end of the story of "The Godfather" was pretty complete. The problem with these serials is they've got to get worse each time you make another one."

FWIW...This was lifted from a recent online interview with FFC about his new movie "Tetro".

I think it is about done. I had hoped for a 4th one in 1996. But in the end, Especially after Mariso Puzo's death. I decided that they should let it rest. A lot of the cast members are getting really old too. What time period will they set it on if a 4th one was made? Keep in mind that it was a period series.

It's safe to say another Godfather film with FFC behind the camera is not going to happen.

I wouldn't put it past the powers that be to make a "reboot", "remake" or just a plain old sequel at some point. There is too much potential cash to be made for them to sit back and not do it.

Banned for spamming.

Wow there could really be a foolish one. Lets bring back everyone from the original cast who is still living. Even Duvall. They can make up some story that GF III was really a bad dream...that Mary is still alive. An aging Pacino, Duvall, Diane Keaton could really make a farce of the whole enterprise. The plot?
No clue.

This will most likely be the case but I think it will be a while until that occurs.

A new Godfather without FFC's involvement will not be a real Godfather. It would also be a insult towards him, cause only he should decide if there will be another one or not.

Honestly, I do hope there will be a new one with him directing or producing it, but only if he gets the same privileges as he had with Part II.

If you watch some of Robert Duvall's youtube videos, he says that III came out so long after II because people were waiting to be offered big money to do it. Same is happening with IV.

Isn't the original cast getting a little long in the tooth to be contemplating IV?

Francis Ford Cappola has hinted at not doing another sequel to the franchise. There is a rumor that there is talks of a pre sequel to the original Godfather based on the book by Falco which is said to be actually written by Puzo before he had died. Does anyone have any information about the legal hearings on Ed Falco and Paramount?

How could the first BTTF be "the best", if the two sequels were "equally as good"? How could Parts Two & Three be "equally as good" as the original BTTF, if the original was "the best"?

Logically, is that even possible?
