Looks like Max Landis will not have any involvement with the sequel to the popular superhero-found-footage flick, Chronicle, and to make the second movie news even more dismal, Josh Trank is out, too.
All of this according to Max Landis’ own Twitter account. A while back, Landis had stated he was still working on the project, and even had a draft in hand, but now, not so much…
As of right now, neither Josh and I are on Chronicle 2, so…

I’ve been off Chronicle 2 for months now. Fox had a different direction they wanted to take the series, Josh was never attached. — Max Landis (@Uptomyknees) July 18, 2013
Ultimately, I’m just very grateful to Fox for making a film as close to my original script as Chronicle was. For making the film at all. — Max Landis (@Uptomyknees) July 18, 2013
Chronicle 2 is still probably happening, just not with my involvement as of now. It’s a bummer, but there are no real hard feelings.

So there you go… If you were only going to see Chronicle 2 because of these two names, looks like you are out of luck. But… what if… just what iffffff… Fox announces news about the sequel at this week’s Comic-Con? OOOOOOOooooooo! I get goosebumps just thinking about it.
