According to Virginia Madsen, Bernard Rose originally wanted the first sequel Candyman 2 to be a prequel showing [[Candyman (1992)|Candyman]] and Helen's "look-alike" falling in love, but the idea was turned down because the studio was worried about how a fully-fledged interracial romance would be received. A possible fourth film was in development in 2004; according to Tony Todd, it was intended to be set in New England at a women's college, and focus on a professor who is a descendant of Candyman and yet have no idea who he is, with Todd describing "the initial image [being] of Candyman in a blizzard". As of 2007, the film was reported to be stuck in development hell. The slasher crossover film Freddy vs. Jason (2003) also inspired Miramax to want to create a Candyman vs. Hellraiser crossover, but Clive Barker, originator of both franchises, had recommended against it. A crossover with the Leprechaun film series was also considered, but Tony Todd immediately flat out refused to participate in such a project, saying he had too much respect for his character to see him used for such a purpose. | According to Virginia Madsen, Bernard Rose originally wanted the first sequel Candyman 2 to be a prequel showing [[Candyman (1992)|Candyman]] and Helen's "look-alike" falling in love, but the idea was turned down because the studio was worried about how a fully-fledged interracial romance would be received.
