Variety, through Coming Soon, reports that The Weinstein Company and Kanbar Entertainment have begun planning a sequel to their successful Hoodwinked. The sequel, currently titled Hood vs. Evil, will be equipped with twice the budget of the first film, which worked with less than $20 million. The plot for Evil follows “a teen Red training in a distant land with a mysterious, covert group called ‘Sisters of the Hood’. She is then called upon by Nicky Flippers — head of the Happily Ever After Agency — who teams her with the Wolf to investigate the disappearance of Hansel and Gretel. The character of Granny, and the rest of the Hoodwinked gang, also return and are joined by new characters.” Weinstein hopes the franchise will spring two additional films.
