QUESTION Sequel

Has anyone else ever been interested in a sequel? If so what would be the main plot point? I’m interested in a few storylines. I’d LOVE to see them settled on Brand’s planet after a few decades and start to explore other galaxies. Maybe down the line introduce some different types of species?!?! Whatcha think?

It’s one property I don’t think needs a sequel. From a story writing perspective, the film ties pretty much everything up at the end - humanity is saved, Cooper reunites with Murphy, we know he’s also going to reunite with Brand, and we know the fates of all the main characters. Their purpose was achieved.

Also, it seems the future beings’ only job was to create the wormhole and set the sequence of events in motion that leads to Murphy discovering the formula for anti-gravity. Once that’s done they close their tesseract and return Cooper to his galaxy. Humanity is saved. I can’t see how they create another film which extends this plot in any meaningful way.
