Despite persistent speculation, filmmaker Richard Donner never managed to produce a fifth Lethal Weapon film during his lifetime. After his passing, instead of abandoning the concept altogether, lead actor Mel Gibson opted to try his hand at directing a sequel for the series that originally spanned from 1987 to 1998. Notably, Gibson has won both Best Director and Best Picture Oscars for 1995’s Braveheart, and although he has directed only one film in the last decade (2016’s Hacksaw Ridge), he is now eager to work on the new Lethal Weapon installment as well as a continuation of The Passion of the Christ, his hit movie about Jesus’ crucifixion which grossed over $600 million and held the record for highest-grossing R-rated film at the domestic box office until Deadpool & Wolverine.
