Speaking to The Playlist about his film career, director Robert Rodriguez - who produced last year's Predators reboot and directed the film adaptation of Frank Miller's Sin City - updated the status on the proposed sequels to both films. He said that the script for Sin City 2 (penned by William Monahan) is 'pretty close' to being completed, and that they may have it soon. He also confirmed that he hasn't talked to Fox recently about the Predators sequel, and that he'll have to talk to them about where to go with the project.



On a follow-up to Predators...
I haven't talked to them in a while. I know they liked the idea of doing another one. I should probably call and check in. I've just been busy doing these other things.


On the Sin City 2 script...
We have a script for 'Sin City 2' and we just needed to round it out a little bit more, brought in Bill to try and solve some things.

Like before we had three different stories that we were trying to meld together and he took a pass at it for a couple of weeks and now Frank is doing his pass. We're pretty close. We might have it soon.

Predators was a great film. I hope they make another.

Bring on another "Predator" film! Maybe even do a straight up origin film that has no humans and is strictly in the Predator language............even though that's not really Robert's style. Maybe they should have an El Mariachi/Predator crossover. ;)

@marvel72

predators was a good film would be interesting so see what direction they take & what new things they can bring, maybe a cameo from Arnold 'Get to the chopper' schwarzenegger
& i got a feeling when SIN CITY 2 does get made it may not live up to its potential

Someone should get Frank Miller off the Sin City script. He'll probably put in a scene where Marv screams "[frick] ISLAM!" and starts shooting random people.

If they don't make a Predators sequel I will ne pissed. And if we get another one off character like Laurence Fishburne's Nolan, can he at least do something.

Robert Rodriguez produced Predators, not directed it. It was directed by Nimrod Antal. And I thought it was a good movie with plenty of call backs to the first two.
As for Sin City, it is still one of my favorite movies with amazing and breathtaking visuals that I can't wait to see a sequel to.

Sin City was great! Cant wait the sequel!

Predators had decent action and cool ideas like the tribe war between upper and lower class Predators.
The acting... well was good in some parts and other parts it wasnt.
Most blame probably in the script i think.

Robert should takeover Conan The Barbarian sequel and make that character shine again! Red Sonja should show up in it! And after that get her own movie!

Here's an idea: How about Rodriguez gets his and his hack-job production company as far away from the Predator franchise as humanly possible???

The guy sucks! He's a curse on all things film related and he's a hack, pure and simple.


It bothers me because Predator is one of the greatest alien creations in cinematic history.......they are so great that they are (obviously) considered on par with the Alien creatures, YET while the Alien films get nothing but quality directors (thank God for that...trust me, I'm not complaining about that part!!!), with the exception of the 4th film, including Ridley Scott, James Cameron, David Fincher and, now Ridley Scott again......the predator films get screwed over and over again.

How come the Predator films are always getting the shaft with directors/producers like Nimrod Antal, Robert Rodriguez and Stephen Hopkins??? WTF???

Get a good director, get a good special effects company and, for the love of [frick], get a good writer!!!!

And on a side note: Rodriguez should be shot for thinking that the super strong, incredibly ugly, unbelievably lame "outcast tribe" of predators was a good idea. It was almost as bad as the predator dogs.

Stick to what works, Rodriguez!!!

Would hoping for a Machete/El Mariachi teamup in a film be too much to ask? Throw in Salma Hayek reprising Satanica Demonica from From Dusk Til Dawn and I'll give you my money...

Woops,I meant "Satanica Pandemonium". Apologies.

I COULD WATCH ANOTHER PREDATORS MOVIE BUT IF THERES ANOTHER YOU NEED TO PUT A TEAM ON THAT PLANET, LIKE THE WHOLE CAST OF EXPENDABLES.
