Nearly a decade after the cinematic spectacle of Real Steel hit the screens in 2011 fans continue to demand a sequel.

What is Real Steel about?
Real Steel unfolds in an era where human pugilists have been supplanted by fighting robots. Beneath the veneer of mechanized pugilism, the story is a heartfelt exploration of the bond between a father (Hugh Jackman) and his son (Dakota Goyo).
Despite the film’s resounding success at the box office, amassing $264 million against a $110 million budget, it didn’t automatically translate into a greenlit sequel. Even so, it has become a classic to many Gen-Zers and trended in Netflix’s Top 10 during the pandemic. So after 12 excruciating years of longing for a sequel, the question becomes, “Will we ever get a Real Steel 2?”
Will a sequel happen?
After the release of Real Steel, Levy hinted at a sequel. However, the project seemingly faded as Levy and Jackman pursued different ventures.
Despite their busy schedules, the professional relationship between Levy and Jackman endured. Jackman made cameo appearances in Levy’s Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb and lent his voice to Free Guy. The duo have now reunited for Deadpool 3, raising hopes for Real Steel 2.
The continued interest in Real Steel, coupled with the creative synergy between Levy and Jackman, may hint at a promising future for fans of robot boxing. As fans eagerly await news and developments, we may yet dream of a future in which these metallic warriors once again clash again on the big screen.
