30 Movie Franchises That Started But Never Finished

#18. The Golden Compass

Created from Philip Pulman’s His Dark Materials. The film starred Hollywood icons like Nicole Kidman, Dakota Blue Richards, and Daniel Craig. Although the movie made a lot of money, the reception was poor. With a focus on anti-religion in the original book, The movie’s plot was much simpler and this let down audiences who read the novel. A sequel is probably never going to be announced.
