Brendan Fraser will not reprise his role as Professor Trevor Anderson in the upcoming sequel to Journey to the Center of the Earth. Reportedly, Fraser was on board until he found out the director of the first film, Eric Brevig, would not be returning due to a scheduling conflict. Originally, Brevig was slotted to return but Warner Brothers moved up production on the sequel and Brevig was unavailable as he is focusing at the moment on directing Yogi Bear. So, Brevig is out along with Fraser, Brad Peyton will direct the Journey sequel. Josh Hutcherson who supported Fraser in the first installment, playing his nephew Sean, will be the lead character in the second film which is slated to be released towards the end of 2011.
