New Live-Action "Flintstones" Film Planned
Ryan Gosling and Jessie Henderson are seeking a writer for the project, which would revisit the Hanna-Barbera property after two live-action films grossed $401 million worldwide.
- Ryan Gosling and producing partner Jessie Henderson are developing a live-action Flintstones film at Warner Bros through their Open Invite production company, centering on an adult Bamm-Bamm Rubble instead of Fred Flintstone.
- Two prior live-action adaptations of the Hanna-Barbera cartoon earned significant box office returns, with 1994's The Flintstones starring John Goodman and Rick Moranis grossing $340 million globally and combining with 2000's The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas to reach $401M at the global box office.
- Currently seeking a writer, the production team has disclosed limited plot and timeline details; it remains unconfirmed whether Gosling will appear on screen or focus solely on producing duties.
- Gosling recently starred as Ken in Barbie and produced the $684M-grossing Project Hail Mary, while also preparing to enter the Star Wars universe with Starfighter directed by Shawn Levy and reunite with Levy for Marvel Studios' upcoming Ghost Rider movie.
- Audiences first encountered an adult Bamm-Bamm in the 1971-1972 Saturday morning CBS animated series The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show, where he dated Pebbles, attended Bedrock High School, and performed in the band Bedrock Rockers.
