I want a sequel to Rat Race where John Cleeseβs character dies and invites everyone from the first film to his funeral, BUT, heβs secretly set up a Rat Maze to trap them all in. A sort of post-mortem revenge on them for donating all his wealth to charity.
Rat Race was arguably one of the top five funniest comedies from the early 2000s and it would be really nice to see everyone together again. Of course if some of the vast amount of people in the first film couldnβt be there, you could have newer faces fill the spots.
Just imagine: Jon Lovits with his grandkids.
Rowan Atkinson as some sort of wealthy Ted Talk guy who wrote a successful book about Narcolepsy.
Idk. Iβm just having fun picturing these scenarios. What do you all think?
Edit: My original line of thinking for this would be instead of everyone fighting for money, theyβre all fighting for their lives. A dark twist where the maze is filled with traps and only one can survive.
Edit 2: HOLY SHIT THIS GOT ON r/all! Thank you to everyone who gave me awards and upvoted. We gotta get this film made!

John Cleese's take on creativity changed my process for the better and made me a more effective collaborator. Here's a video explaining the basics of his theory of 'open' vs 'closed' mode when it comes to creativity. It's interwoven with music but it applies to any creative field. Enjoy! youtu.be/UZ0obu0vMQw
