»Director of THE MAZE RUNNER: THE SCORCH TRIALS, Wes Ball, Talks Blending the Final Two Books

THE MAZE RUNNER: THE SCORCH TRIALS is almost upon us! I’m so excited to see the sequel to one of my favorite movies of 2014. I’m pretty sure the rest of the world is way too excited as well. Even though the film is a little over a month out, we already have word on how the franchise is going to continue the films. Which maybe includes blending the second and third books together? Read the following insert from

/FILM as director We Ball gives us a little hint as to what’s to come in THE SCORCH TRIALS.

/FILM: Can you talk about kind of obviously not specifics, but what kind of Easter eggs or little hints there might be of the third?

Wes: That’s kind of our approach on it. So I don’t wanna get into too much of the details about what we’re doing there, but the way we’re approaching this now that we’ve kind of we’ve got our first one and fortunately it kind of worked out so we could make the next ones, it’s not as easy to take that second book and just do a straight adaptation. It just won’t work basically. So what our approach is basically to take the rest of his story, the rest of his saga and find the two movies in that. And that required some things to come from the third book come into the second and the second into the third. And make that nice, linear trajectory of a nice, cohesive story that’s all building to one finale in the next one hopefully.

So that’s kind of our approach and that means some characters have to come in, we have to set up certain things that are only in the last bit of the third book. We’re bringing them in now, kind of starting to sprinkle them in. So like I said, it all feels like a one cohesive thing, you know what I mean? So that’s been a little bit of the challenge just to find that balance ’cause the fans are very, very important to us obviously and we don’t wanna disappoint them. But at the same time, let’s look at the last one, you had to make some tweaks and changes to make a good movie. So that’s kind of our goal.
