Is there a prequel to 'The Outsiders'?

Answer 1

There is no official "sequel" toThe Outsiders, though That Was Then, This Is Now is often said to be. It contains references to characters in The Outsiders (including Ponyboy Curtis, Curly and Tim Shepard and a couple more), and was written by the same author, S.E. Hinton. It takes place about a year after The Outsiders, but doesn't focus on the characters of that book, besides small cameos from the characters. like I said earlier no OFFICIAL sequel, I would call this a sequel with a different storyline

Answer 2

The closest thing there is to a sequal is "That Was Then, This Is Now". It really isn't one though, it just mentions Ponyboy a few times. If you do read it, note that they call him "Curtis" almost the whole thing.

Answer 3

Yes they are, although I'm not happy about it. They're remaking it with a hip hop twist.

Check out the casting call.
