Through an in-depth analysis of major film franchises, including Spider-Man, The Lord of the Rings, Pirates of the Caribbean, and The Matrix, Hammond examines how sequels moved beyond simple continuations of successful films to become cultural touchstones and financial juggernauts. This book delves into the creative risks, marketing strategies, and technological innovations that defined these films, offering insight into how they balanced audience expectations, critical reception, and commercial success. With a focus on the balance between innovation and familiarity, The Art of the Sequel traces the lasting impact of early 2000s sequels on modern blockbuster filmmaking, exploring their role in shaping the future of cinema and their ongoing legacy in today's franchise-driven industry.
