Who says you can keep an old assassin down?
The Hollywood Reporter has announced that steps are being taken to make a film sequel to the movie RED, based on the comic from Warren Ellis and Cully Hamner.
Erich and Jon Hoeber, who wrote the original film’s script, have been tapped for a second film. That said, the movie has NOT been greenlit yet, and the producers still don’t have the original director or cast (Bruce Willis, Helen Mirren or John Malkovich) signed on for a second movie.
Still, the idea that this Wildstorm book inspired a Golden Globe-nominated movie, and raked in $90 million domestically? Not too shabby! Let the reloading begin.

Red took in only about $21 million in its first US weekend; the $90 million figure is for its entire US run.
