Thanks to the guys over at Collider, we now know that the writers of the surprise 2010 hit, RED, have been rehired to pen the script to a sequel. After raking in an impressive $164 million worldwide, it's not surprising that Summit Entertainment have made a move such as this. Here is an excerpt from the sites exclusive report, and be sure to follow the link at the bottom of the page for more information.
Sources have told us that Summit has hired screenwriters Jon and Erich Hoeber to write a sequel. It’s worth noting that commissioning a script is not the same thing as a giving a green light. However, it is an important first step and if Summit is happy with the Hoebers’ screenplay, then I would expect the studio to hit the gas on what they’re probably hoping will be a new franchise.
What do you guys think about this? Would you like to see more from Bruce Willis, Helen Mirren and Morgan Freeman as the former government assassins in another movie, or was once more than enough? Be sure to share your thoughts in the usual place!
