Gremlins 3: Chaos Unleashed will mark the triumphant comeback of the venerable Gremlins franchise. The sequel, which was scripted by Chris Columbus, the original’s creative force, and directed by Jordan Vogt-Roberts (Kong: Skull Island), is expected to combine the thrilling, contemporary edge of the 1984 blockbuster with its nostalgic charm.

Set decades after the events of Gremlins 2: The New Batch, the story reintroduces us to Billy (Zach Galligan) and Kate (Phoebe Cates), who are now living a quiet life in a small Midwestern town with their teenage daughter, Ella. Their lives take a dramatic turn when Gizmo, the lovable Mogwai, is rediscovered in an ancient shop, unleashing chaos once more.

This time, the stakes are higher as Ella befriends Gizmo, unknowingly breaking the infamous rules: no bright light, no water, and never feed them after midnight. What starts as a heartwarming reunion quickly spirals into mayhem when new, evolved Gremlins emerge. These creatures are smarter, deadlier, and even harder to contain, threatening not just the town but the world.
