While I thought it was going to do better, apparently “Piranha 3D” did well enough in its opening weekend.
“Strong reviews and a $10 million opening was enough for Dimension Films to get working on a sequel of Piranha 3-D. The studio confirmed today that plans for another bloody gore fest are in the works with director Alexandre Aja and producer Mark Canton re-teaming with Dimension. ‘We are thrilled that audiences are not just loving Piranha 3-D, but cheering for it,’ says Canton. ‘And it’s fantastic that so many critics are really getting the movie and recommending it. We can’t wait to get to work on the sequel’.”
