Night at the Museum Reboot Sparks Mixed Reactions

20th Century Studios, in partnership with 21 Laps Entertainment, is developing a reboot of the 'Night at the Museum' franchise, with Shawn Levy and Dan Levine producing and Tripper Clancy writing the script. The new film will introduce a fresh cast of characters and a new setting, departing from the original trilogy led by Ben Stiller as Larry Daley. The reboot aims to reimagine the franchise for a new audience, though plot details remain under wraps. Fan reactions have been mixed, with some expressing nostalgia and others criticizing Hollywood's trend of reboots over original content. The original trilogy, based on Milan Trenc's children's book, grossed over $1.3 billion and included three live-action films and an animated Disney+ sequel. There is currently no information on casting, a director, or a release date, and Ben Stiller's involvement remains uncertain.
