Jonathan Ke Quan, who played Data in the original The Goonies spoke with
Empire Online and revealed that he has been approached to reprise his role in a Goonies animated series. According to the site, Corey Feldman ('Mouth' in the movie) recently told MTV that he had been approached to return as an older version of his character for a cartoon series, in which the original Goonies would be all grown ups and with adventuring kids of their own. Jonathan Ke Quan says that he and Jeff Cohen ('Chunk') have been asked to lend their talents too:
"We were approached a few months ago by Warner about doing it and asked if we would be interested," said Ke Quan. "They even showed us character designs. It looks very cool".
Quan believes that if Steven Spielberg goes ahead with the project, then the original cast will be confident enough to come aboard.
Whether or not a new animated series would derail a possible The Goonies live-action sequel is unknown at this point.
