Following the cult success of the 2009 blaxploitation spoof Black Dynamite, work is underway on a sequel with the plan being to switch characters and genres while retaining the original creative team. CraveOnline caught up with leading man and co-writer Michael Jai White on the red carpet to this week’s Alex Cross and learned that the current plan is to approach the project as a western.
“We had discussed,” says White, “and it looks like we’re getting closer to the decision of something that would be an homage to ‘Blazing Saddles’. […] It’s a western comedy in that spirit of Blazing Saddles, but you mix that with ‘Buck and the Preacher’.”
