There is some very dismaying news coming out of The Telegraph in regards to the future of Roger Rabbit as a whole.
A few other websites (such as ComicBook.com) have picked up on quotes from the Who Framed Roger Rabbit director himself, Robert Zemeckis. He has revealed what he believes is the current feeling at Disney Corporate regarding Roger and Jessica Rabbit in addition to any other related projects:
“the current corporate Disney culture has no interest in Roger, and they certainly don’t like Jessica at all.”
This is extraordinarily sad, and also very obvious as Jessica Rabbit's pins have vanished and there has been so little news or merchandise to report on as the years have passed. Zemeckis did share what the idea would have been for Roger Rabbit 2 - moving out of 1940's film noir into a more 50's style movie and acting as a continuation rather than a sequel.

Roger is on the left, kneeling and swooning over Jessica. She is on the right sending a kiss to him. There is a reel of unraveled film between them. When opened the message inside printed in dark pink reads "I love you more than anyone has ever loved anyone." with a heart below the quote. The pins will also come on special backer cards. It will be a Limited Edition of 3,000 and sell for $15.95.
