Deadline reports that Summit Entertainment has cast Catherine Zeta-Jones (
Rock of Ages) and Byung-Hun Lee (
G.I. Joe: Retaliation in
Red 2. They will join the returning cast members from the 2010 movie, while Dean Parisot (
Justified) will direct the script by Erich and Jon Hoeber (
Red). Lionsgate International will sell the film at Cannes, and the sequel (which will see the retired CIA operatives taking on a new threat in Europe) is set to be released on August 2nd, 2013. Personally, I wasn't a fan of
Red, but are you all looking forward to this follow-up? Sound off with your thoughts in the usual place.
