| Summary |
Drawing upon a wide range of filmic examples from early cinema to the 21st century, this book reveals the increasing popularity of, and experimentation with, film sequels as a central dynamic of Hollywood cinema, and aims to account for some of the major critical contexts within which sequelisation operates by exploring sequel production beyond box office figures. |
