Another common reason for a spinoff is that an actor was still an up-and-comer and only played a small part in the original movie, but their character is given their own movie now that said actor is a bigger star.</p><p>Sometimes, it's a successful approach. Some of the best and/or most profitable films of recent years are technically spinoffs, including <em>Deadpool</em>, <em>Logan</em>, <em>Minions</em>, and <em>The Lego Batman Movie</em>.
