"Who Framed Roger Rabbit 3D" possible sequel???

"Who Framed Roger Rabbit" was one of my favourite films growing up, I must have seen it about 50 times growing up. The film also has great cinematic acclaim, reviews and a pretty nice box office record. The film was funny, witty and appealed to both children and adults alike, it is very surprising that there isn't already a sequel.

"Zemeckis has always been on board for a sequel, but the project has been stuck in development hell for over a decade. Meanwhile, Hoskins announced this August (2012) that he is to retire from acting after being diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease.
However, Zemeckis has yet to give up hope on Who Framed Rabbit 2. Talking to Showbiz411.com at the New York Film Festival on Sunday (October 14), he revealed that he has a script ready.
After expressing sadness about Hoskins’ retirement, the director said: “I have a script at Disney, and we’re just waiting for all the executive changes to settle down there.”
Meanwhile, Disney is planning a 3D re-release of the original Who Framed Roger Rabbit next November (2013) to mark the film’s 25th anniversary."

Going to be 100% not really interested at all in a 3D release, but the idea of a possible sequel catches my attention. I've been hearing/reading rumours of a sequel for a few years now, lets hope it doesn't drag out.
