It’s not uncommon for a hit movie to spawn continuations. While sequels and prequels are the likeliest candidates, there’s a good chance some of your favorite movies have found new life in comic books, video games, or even TV. From action-packed thrillers like Liam Neeson’s Taken to Oscar-winning films like Traffic, many movies have inspired TV continuations. Still, for every impressive entry, there are forgettable attempts like Minority Report and Limitless, each running for a single season.
