It’s quite possible that the Merry Men Nollywood movie franchise could have another part (Merry Men 4), especially considering the way Merry Men 3: Nemesis ended.

The unresolved plotlines of Merry Men 3, with some characters either facing uncertain fates or hinting at a larger conspiracy or continuation, indicate this. If the conclusion left room for revenge, justice, or unfinished business, that’s a strong setup for another sequel.

The Merry Men franchise, led by Ayo Makun (AY), also has a strong fan base. The performance of Merry Men 3 on streaming, like Netflix and at the box office reveals a follow-up would make business sense.

Like many action-comedy franchises, Merry Men has a rotating set of conflicts but consistent characters. That’s a format that can sustain multiple parts.

Neither Ayo Makun nor the production team have hinted at more parts.

Merry Men 3 was intended as a final chapter. However, the way it ended suggests the door is open for a Merry Men 4. It might take a while, but it wouldn’t be surprising if another part drops in the next 1–2 years.

This current subject on Nollywood franchise movies highlights Toka Mcbaror’s Merry Men, the first chronicle of Ay’s rogue-themed creation with Ramsey Nouah, Ayo Makun and Ireti Doyle.

Where does this narrative go after the Merry Men frees Kemi from Dame Maduka in the second part by Moses Inwang? What else is in his storybook?

Ay and his team is trying the idea of trilogies, from simple storytelling, a new concept in Nollywood. As it seemed to him, a third film in the Merry Men franchise was sensible to complete the Merry Men trilogy like with his other films.

Things have gone as planned from the first movie and now the viewers are looking for an impossible mission narrative.

Ayo Makun has created a similar franchise in the past which also ended with a third part. He appears to have made his previous franchise progressively and expects to eventually make three Merry Men movies all from fiction.
