Titolo: LABYRINTH-Sequel by McKean/Gaiman ?1?

Mi giunge voce di un ipotetico sequel di Labyrinth con Dave McKean
regista e Neil Gaiman sceneggiatore.
E' una voce frutto del caldo o qualcuno ne sa di piu'??
TIA

Sto film mi incuriosisce quanto "League of Extraordinary Gentlemen"

 per chi non sapesse che cosa sia),
Cmq. qualcosa di vero pare ci sia, infatti cercando sul sito di
Gaiman:

Si legge (pare si chiamera' Mirror Mask):
"Well, Mirror-Mask started out when Sony noticed that Labyrinth has
become a very popular, and very steady seller on Video and now on DVD.
They spoke to Hensons about making a sequel. Hensons don't
independently control the rights to Labyrinth, though, and it cost
about $20 million almost 20 years ago, and the conversation rapidly
became "could you do something like that?" Given the tiny amount of
money they had to make the film with, Lisa Henson had a bright idea
and phoned me to ask if I thought Dave McKean would direct it (she
loved Dave's short films, and knew he'd made them for pocket change).
She asked if I'd maybe come up with a story, which, as they were doing
this on a budget, they'd get someone else to write. I told her flatly
that if Dave was directing it, I was writing it.
Then Dave and I got together. He had an idea for a story and I had an
idea for a story and they sort of blended in odd ways, and we wound up
co-creating the story, and then I wrote the script, and sometimes Dave
would do a rough draft of a sequence he'd figured out, when it was
easier for him to write it down than to explain it to me. And then we
were done in first draft. We had a character with the place-holder
name of Puck, and we'd been trying to come up with a better name for
him, and then it was February 14th so I called him Valentine, and we
were done.
It's a story about a teenage girl on a strange quest through a magical
world. It's not a sequel to Labyrinth, or even an indirect sequel.
It's more something that came out of talking about how you'd do
something like that today. But Labyrinth was all around while we
created it -- not only in the ancient puppets, and original Brian
Froud Labyrinth concept paintings hanging on the walls. Poking around
in a closet of videos, I found a working print of Labyrinth, when it
was three hours long, had puppeteer voices instead of actor voices,
and lots of genuinely funny Sir Didimus stuff that never made it into
the final film (voiced by Dave Goelz -- voice of the Great Gonzo), and
Dave and I played it over several evenings, curious and fascinated."

Sbam, ok, Tifa o chi lo sa, dove trovo questi corti che pare sia
l'unico sulla faccia della terra a non averne sentito parlare ? :-)
