Today while doing an edit bay visit with Michael Davis, the director of Shoot ‘Em Up, he told the IESB that Clive Owen had signed on to do both Shoot ‘Em Up 2 and 3.
So while there are no immediate plans for a sequel, he currently has a script that could easily be adapted to be a follow up. He didn’t reveal any details of the script but he said that Don Murphy would be producing again whether it ends up being adapted for a sequel or a turned into whole new film.
His hopes are to have Clive Owen also return regardless if it’s a sequel or not as well.
There is no word on whether the possible sequel will include Monica Belluci or Paul Giamatti as additional cast.
Good news for Clive Owen fans, he will be attending Comic Con 2007 and will be screening Shoot ‘Em Up in its entirety. Details will be coming shortly on how to get tickets.
A gritty, fast-paced action thriller, Shoot 'Em Up kicks into high gear with a memorable opening scene and never relents. Clive Owen stars as Mr. Smith, a mysterious loner who teams up with an unlikely ally (Monica Belluci) to protect a newborn baby from a determined criminal (Paul Giamatti) who hunts them throughout the bowels of the city. Shoot 'Em Up is written and directed by Michael Davis (Monster Man) and is scheduled for a Sept. 7, 2007 release.
