Davis on rumours he’s already penned the sequel
Michael Davis, the man behind what-could-be-the-coolest-film-of-the-year “Shoot ‘Em Up” (hopefully I’ll be able to see it soon – seem to be missing out on a lot because of my fatherly duties) tells Moviehole that recent talk of a sequel was taken out of context.
The filmmaker says he was misrepresented when online reports suggested he’d already penned the sequel.
“No [I haven’t written a sequel] and this is what got misinterpreted – we had some guys through the internet come in and also my publicists don’t like me to talk about this too much because they want me to talk about the movie at hand. I wrote a new script that is it’s own stand alone action script. I could take it to any studio and set it up as it’s own action franchise. But if the script were tweaked, it could also end up being Shoot ‘Em Up II”.
Having said that, Davis would be keen to do a “Shoot ‘Em Up II”.
“I would love to do Shoot ‘Em Up II and I think Clive is into it”, he adds.
Our full interview with Davis will be up in a couple of days.
