When asked how the sequel would bring back Jolie Timur Bekmambetov states:
"If you remember from the first film, we have a recovery room with the baths of wax," Bekmambetov told MTV News. "We know how to do this, but it's still tough to do, because the bullet is inside her head."
"But there has to be a reason for her to come back... and we know the reason," he added. "I think we found the reason for her to come back."
"She was kind of... dead," he laughed.
Although it is clear that Timur Bekmambetov wants Jolie back for the sequel, it isn't set in stone that she will return. Timur did go on to tell us that "I think we will make the movie this winter."
I think for "Wanted 2" to be successful Angelina Jolie has to be in it. She was the highlight of the first movie. I just don't see its being as successful with out Jolie's beautiful presence.
