The Maze Runner (Book 4): The Kill Order, James Dashner
But now a virus is spreading. A virus that fills humans with murderous rage. They're convinced that there's a way to save those who are left—if they can stay alive. Because in this new, devastated world, every life has a price.
Gally is alive in Maze Runner: The Death Cure because he was rescued and saved after The Maze Runner's ending. Although the Gladers thought that he was already dead, Gally confirms that they left him to die. It was after they left that another group stumbled across the maze and laboratory and found Gally still inside.
In 2018, Maze Runner: The Death Cure wrapped up 20th Century Fox's adaptation of James Dashner's Maze Runner trilogy. But the next chapter in the franchise is now in development. Via The Hollywood Reporter, 20th Century Studios is negotiating with screenwriter Jack Paglen to write a new Maze Runner film.
As the original book series only had three books following the original Maze Runner characters, there will most likely not be a fourth Maze Runner movie.
The disease eats away the minds of the afflicted until they turn into Cranks, zombie-like creatures that roam cities killing people until they're killed themselves. Fortunately for Thomas, he and most of his friends are Munies — immune to the Flare. That's why they've been put through the Maze and the Scorch trials.
It is eventually revealed that Thomas' blood contains a unique enzyme that can destroy the Flare virus [2]. In "The Death Cure" film, Teresa, one of the main characters, uses a small fragment of Thomas' blood and observes under a microscope that it snaps a dark-red vein with the virus in it, effectively killing it [2].
However, none of the Maze Runner movies ever explain why WCKD sent Teresa into the Maze. It seems improbable that she betrayed WCKD since she defends them fervently. In Maze Runner 4, the story could provide clarity about whether Teresa went into the Maze voluntarily and the purpose of her presence.
Sometime after being left behind in the WCKD lab by the Gladers, Gally is found still lying on the floor with the spear still in his chest by a crew, who, after discovering that he is immune to the Flare, pull the spear out of his chest and take him to the Last City to meet their leader, a Crank named Lawrence, who ...
The emotional intensity is definitely doubled up in the movie, establishing Teresa as a Thomas' one true love interest. Unlike Dashner's original story, the possibility of him dating Brenda is eliminated, and the audiences also get enough time to process the death of a character introduced right from the first movie.
The Labyrinth was an ingenious maze commissioned by King Minos and designed by the architect Daedalus. In order to escape the maze after killing the Minotaur, Theseus needed a ball of thread, given to him by the princess Ariadne.
Since The Maze Runner's set in the future, James Dashner felt it'd be more realistic to include names of influential figures that don't yet exist. The person Minho's named after is the likes of a future scientist. Overall though, Dashner was inspired to name the character after his niece's husband who's called Minho.
