I know I keep harping on all these sequels that I want. But can you blame me? I mean, there is a reason I love these movies/mini-series. I mean, the likelihood that someone will read this and say, “hey, this is a great idea,” is slim to none, I admit. But there is always that hope that someone will read this and do it. According to AngelFire.com, it took Simon Moore, the creator, and writer of The 10th Kingdom, more than 12 years to make the original miniseries.
That was all before 2000. After 2000, after the NBC debut, Moore replied to fan letters with a short synopsis of the sequel (since it was hinted at in the ending of The 10th Kingdom). He told fans that it would take place mainly in the 2nd Kingdom and would center around Wolf (who was played by Scott Cohen) this time. He also said that Virginia was very much pregnant.
In 2001 it was noted that all the actors, except for John Larroquette [Tony], were interested in returning for the sequel. However, even he said he would return for a short cameo role. He reasoned that he hated the 6-months of filming that had taken him away from his family. This is entirely understandable; people get homesick. We all know there never was a sequel. Hallmark never picked it up, and neither did NBC, even though fans have been asking for it for 11 years.
NBC’s whole reasoning is because miniseries had dismal ratings in America anyway, making them have little to no interest in a sequel. However, Hallmark had more orders for the boxed tape than they could fill. I contributed, buying both the video boxed set and the DVD when it came out on DVD. There is a little hope, though. As of March 2004, Moore said in an interview:
“I would love to continue the adventures of Wolf and Virginia, but there are a number of obstacles in the way. However, as some of you know, The 10th Kingdom took nearly twelve years to get made, so don’t give up on a sequel quite yet!”
In 2006, Moore gave a little less hopeful response saying:
“Most of you know that a second series of 10th Kingdom is something I would love to do, but we will all have to wait until the time is right and the opportunity presents itself. I have no more news on the subject, but if it is meant to happen, then one day it will…”
I would love a sequel. Heck, even a prequel would be excellent. Who says it has to be another miniseries? It could be a movie or even a TV Series. Fairy Tale shows are all the rage at the moment. So why not? If you would like to see a sequel, you can sign The 10th Kingdom Sequel Petition. I did!

Now the 10th Kingdom is on Amazon Prime. I am watching it right now. This gives me hope that there may be a sequel coming out. A sequel would be amazing. Or many sequels.
I watched this mini-series as a child. I own the dvd’s now. I find myself still watching it a few times a year and it never gets old. I really hope they suprise us with another series, i have been waiting forever.. maybe someone should pitch the idea to Disney since they love buying things. I just hope they wouldnt ruin it.
Would I ever be there!!!!!!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍
I loved this series.. please do the sequel
It would be awesome to see a sequel. Or a prequel! I would even love to see a series made and watch it every week! Whatever it takes to get it made I’m in favor of it. I would even be willing to donate to the cause! I’m sure lots of fans would, just to get it u and runing!!!
Signed,
Hope I don’t sound too desperate😎
Oops! I meant, “Up and running!!!”

#WELL,WE’RE WAITING!
Awesome movie, Love It. Keeps me wanting more. A favorite to say in the least. If any video, book,comes out .count me in,please.
I’m71have the first series on dvd want to see what happens next befor I die . Or is it in book form so I can read the series
I originally watched the 10th kingdom as a child and loved it. I now as an adult own it on dvd. I’m sad to know that there won’t be a sequel. But maybe we all need to email nbc and Hallmark about the sequel. I love this mini series we need more. Before all the actors get to old to play their parts and new actors have to be cast
True it’s possible if enough people were to demonstrate an interest in a sequel to these companies they may reconcider it and I’m willing to give it a shot let’s hope others will too.
I would like to read the sequel! Will Simon at least sell the book her wrote or put his screenplay into book form? Please this would be wonderful and perfect since no one can replace the characters and they have aged but not in oh right minds they are ageless and the same therefore reading it will be just as amazing! Any clues?
I would love a book too at this point. It should come out. I hope it does.
I would love a sequel to The 10th Kingdom I remember watching it with my mom may she rest in peace now when I was younger and I would my children love the the miniseries ourselves and we would love to see a sequel to it specially about a wolf
We just watched the 10th kingdom on my old vhs tapes with our grand daughter and she loved it. I would love to see a sequel or a movie to continue on with the story.

I tried to sign the petition for the sequel, but it no longer exists.. I have both the original VHS boxed set and Bought the DVD when it came out. I would love to see another like it.
I’m a fairy tale creature, I have it on VHS and DVD. I loved EVERYTHING about The
10th Kingdom, please, please make a sequel …. I can’t stand it. I’ve been looking for it every year.
I would love to hear see anot her 10th kingdom or 4! I loved it when it c as me out, buying the vhs and later the DVD. And rebusing the book more then once!!
Forgot to mention, I watched this when it first aired on TV, as a little girl. I looked forward to watching it every night for the five nights it aired! Loved it then and still love it now!
I love this series!!!! I have watched it many times and own the DVD’s. I absolutely adore Wolf (Scott Cohen) and Virginia (Kimberly Williams-Paisley). Their story is so unique and they’re chemistry is on point! I would love to see more of their story and the stories of all the nine kingdoms. I hope something is in the works. Such a great miniseries!!!
A sequel would be awesome I have seen it multiple times and would like to see a sequel. I would pay to have it made if I had the money. Its that good.
You say “I mean the likelihood that someone is going to read this and say “hey this is a great idea” is slim to none, I admit that. But […]” every time I get a notice that you’ve posted. Is nothing new?
I have loved this miniseries since I was very little. It’s been awhile since I have seen tenth kingdom, but I just watched it again today and wondered about a sequel. I guess one was never made, which is very disappointing. I would have loved to know what happened to Virginia and Wolf!
Just finished watching the show with my boyfriend and we love it. I have loved it from the start. I would love it more if the sequel would come out. What happens to Virginia and Wolf? What about Tony and Wendell? Give us the sequel!! Please.
I remember watching this as a kid and I loved it!! I recently found this on DVD at Walmart for only $5! Great deal! I would absolutely love to see a sequel!
I just rewatched 10th Kingdom for the billionth time this weekend, so I was poking around for the sequel synopsis and ended up here. I know he says not to give up because it took 12 years to get 10th Kingdom made, but, gosh. It’s been 16 years now. And certainly if they make a sequel now, most if not all the parts will have to be recast (which I don’t think I’d want), or else they’d have to totally rewrite the sequel to take place at least 10 years later.
But I thought the sequel was actually pretty much written. I wish they could at least release it in book form.
This would obviously take some money and some network cooperation, but they could re-air the miniseries as some kind of anniversary special, maybe with members of the original cast popping up to add commentary or just memories as the lead-ins to the show when it comes back from commercial breaks. This would then lead in to them re-releasing the DVD set of the series, plus a Blu-Ray release, plus re-releasing the now out-of-print book, and would serve as a promotion to the brand new book version of the sequel. And MAYBE this would create enough buzz that a filmed version of the sequel would seem more feasible, even if it had to be recast with younger actors at this point.
Love the series. Just got through watching it again on my VHS tape and wondered if there was a sequel as the end suggested. Glad I found this site to explain the difficulties involved and why it was never made. Really surprised there is a current discussion about the series. As current at March 31, 2016 any way. I’m of the opinion that too much time as passed to make a good sequel now. The chemistry between Wolf (thought Scott Cohen did a fantastic job), Virginia and her dad would not be the same with different actors. We’ll just have to accept it as a One-of; a one-of-a-kind and be grateful it got made in the first place.
