Battlefield Earth 2 is a proposed sequel to the 2000 Razzie-Award winning film Battlefield Earth. The film was first scheduled for a 2002 release, but was extended for a 2003 release, before being cancelled due to the failure of Battlefield Earth.
Plot[]
Johnnie Goodboy Tyler and the rest of the humans would be facing life after the Psychloes were defeated.

Why It Was Cancelled[]
- The first Battlefield Earth film failed at the box office and was panned by both critics and audiences for its overuse of Dutch angles and laughably bad acting.
- Franchise Pictures, the company that produced the film, made a number of other failures including 3000 Miles to Graceland, Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever, Half Past Dead and Feardotcom and then, went out of business.
- The first film also killed the reputation of the Battlefield Earth franchise. There were also plans to produce 13 one-hour animated television segments based on the book and rendered in a manga style. However, the segments were also cancelled.
Result[]
- The film was never made due to the failure of the stand alone film and the bankruptcy of Franchise Pictures.

Trivia[]
