We already knew that writer/director duo Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor were going to team up again with Jason Statham to bring a sequel to Crank to the big screen, but now we have the uber-special name courtesy of a new article over at Variety. However, I am not sure if you are ready for it so I am going to talk a little about another project called Game that Neveldine and Taylor are also working on with a damned impressive cast.
Game is set in a dystopian future of implanted nano-devices, where the ultimate online simulation environment is humans remote-controlling other humans in mass-scale, multi-player online gaming. The lead character, played by Gerard Butler, is a worldwide sensation, and the top-ranked warrior in a game called “Slayers.” With his every move tracked by millions, he battles to regain his identity and bring down the entire system. “Dexter” star, Michael C. Hall is set to play the game’s creator and head honcho and is described as the “guy pulling the strings”.
That plot information comes courtesy of CHUD.com, which broke the news on the film earlier this month. However, along with Butler and Hall Variety has the complete smorgasbord of names attached to this relatively silly little story. They are Amber Valletta, Logan Lerman, Alison Lohman, John Leguizamo, Johnny Whitworth, Zoe Bell and Kyra Sedgwick round out the cast. Principal photography begins Nov. 5 in Albuquerque, N.M. and right after that Neveldine and Taylor move right into…
Yeah, suck on that! If that doesn’t make you wanna just pound a fuckin’ energy drink and fuck a girl in the public over a newspaper dispenser then I don’t know what else does.
The kick ass, fuck your sister release Crank 2: High Voltage goes into production right after Game as Statham will once again play Chev Chelios who now faces a Chinese mobster who has stolen his nearly indestructible heart and replaced it with a battery-powered ticker that requires regular jolts of electricity to keep working. I mean fuck me and balls out shit fuck! Doesn’t this sound like the… Oh wait… I am sorry… This sounds terrible.
My bad…
However, in all seriousness… I never got a chance to see the first Crank film, but it did give me a moment of entertainment as I took the Fuck Montage and played around with it a bit and gave it the video treatment… Here’s how that turned out.
