Ewan McGregor agrees to "Trainspotting 2"?

Caffeinated Clint October 24, 2002 Movie News

Ewan McGregor might be doing the "Trainspotting" sequel, or so says IMDB. Ewan McGregor has patched up his differences with director Danny Boyle – as Boyle seeks to reunite the stars of cult movie Trainspotting for a sequel. Author Irvine Welsh published Porno this year, a novel set 10 years after the original drama which features many of the same characters.There is an opportunity to do Porno, but it would be difficult because he’s got such a varied career – would he go back and play a character he’s already played? But he’s halfway through the book and was laughing because (his character) Renton doesn’t appear until halfway through. He’s going to finish the novel first and take it from there. I finished it and think it’s amazing." However, Boyle believes original stars McGregor, Robert Carlyle, Jonny Lee Miller and Ewen Bremner will team up for the film if he can produce a great script. He reasons, "Everyone says it’s about getting the actors back again, but I think more importantly, it’s about whether we can do justice to the characters. They have become mythical figures since Trainspotting came out."
