In addition to playing the especially glamorous antagonist goblin, Bowie recorded five new songs for the film's soundtrack: " Underground," " Magic Dance," " Chilly Down," " As The World Falls Down" and " Within You." Watch a clip of Bowie as Jareth performing "Magic Dance" below:Īs MTV points out, while fans seem to have pretty mixed opinions about the idea of the reboot on social media, most are preoccupied with the question of who should (or could) be cast in a role to fill Bowie's magical dancing shoes (if Jareth lives on, that is). The film follows Connelly's character as she navigates a magical maze to save her brother before he is turned into a goblin. As Entertainment Weekly points out, rumors regarding a Labyrinth 2 have generated buzz only to be proven false in the past.Īlongside a mostly Muppet cast, the original Labyrinth starred a 15-year-old Jennifer Connelly who wishes away her baby brother only to immediately regret that decision when it's Jareth the Goblin King who snatches him. Mere days following the rock icon's death, the Jim Henson Company and Sony's TriStar Pictures have struck a deal to return to the goblin kingdom in a reboot penned by Guardians of the Galaxy co-writer, Nicole Perlman.ĭetails remain unclear whether the reboot of the 1986 musical fantasy is an actual sequel or more of a remake, Pitchfork reports. Which would still mean the other door leads to good things.Jim Henson's final film, Labyrinth, features David Bowie in one of his most famous acting roles as Jareth the Goblin King and is lauded as a landmark '80s cult classic. If he was the one telling the truth, the answer is still ‘no’ because the other guard is the liar. If he was the liar, the answer would really be ‘no.’ Which would mean the other door leads to good things. If you ask the first guard, “Would the other guard say that this door leads to good things?” and he says “Yes.” Look at each of the guards as if they were the liar and the one telling the truth, like this: One door will lead to pleasant things and the other door will lead to evil things. You have to ask the right question in order to figure out which is which.īreaking this riddle down to facts is that you have two guards. You can only ask one guard and one always tells the truth and one always lies. The riddle: One door leads to good things, the other to bad things. I am now going to try to help you understand it as best as I can so you can feel smart too!! I have always been able to relate to that last line because for the hundreds of times I have watched this movie, I just absentmindedly watch this part assuming I am not intelligent enough to figure it out… Until now! I finally sat down and thought about what she says and pieced the logic together myself. So, if you told me that he said ‘yes’ I know the answer would still be no.” Guard: “But I could be telling the truth!” So, if you told me that he said ‘yes’ i know the answer is no.” Guard: “Ooooh, how do you know? He could be telling the truth.” Sarah: “Then, the other door leads to the castle, and this door leads to certain death.” Guard: ( mumbles to his cohort then answers) “Yes.” Would he tell me that this door leads to the castle?” “Oooh, what a lie!” ( snickering and laughing) And I should warn you that one of us always tells the truth, and one of us always lies. But they do.” (Referring to other guards.) Guards: “Umm, ( mumbles a bit) we don’t know. And the other one leads to… bumBumBUM BUMMM… Certain Death!” “One of them leads to the castle in the center of the Labyrinth. Guards: “The only way out of here is to try one of these doors.”
