There seems to be a lot of interest in the anime industry right now in making more anime movies, because I think they see this as a way of increasing revenue (since people pay to see it in theatres, and will pay again when it arrives on DVD/BD). It also helps them deal with production timing issues given the ongoing shortage of skilled staff. So it wouldn't surprise me very much if they're considering more movies for the future of the franchise; of course, time will tell.
