Background of the Franchise
The original Gremlins film, directed by Joe Dante and written by Chris Columbus, premiered in 1984. It featured Zach Galligan as Billy Peltzer and introduced audiences to the mischievous mogwai, Gizmo, voiced by Howie Mandel. The creature comes with three critical rules that, when ignored, lead to chaos.
A sequel titled Gremlins 2: The New Batch was released in 1994, following the success of the first film. The path to Gremlins 3 has been long, but fans are now closer than ever to seeing their favorite characters return.
