Movies - Clive Owen Signed Up for "Shoot 'Em Up" Sequels

"ESB got the chance to speak to the "Shoot 'Em Up" director Michael Davis, who revealed that Clive Owen has signed on to do two "Shoot 'Em Up" sequels.

Apparently, Davis already has a script that could easily be adapted to be a follow up to the yet-to-be released film. At this point there are no plans to do create a sequel, and Davis doesn't even know if it will be a sequel at all, or a whole new film.

No news on whether Monica Belluci or Paul Giamatti will be returning if the sequels were to happen.

"Shoot 'Em Up" revolves around a man named Mr. Smith (Owen), who delivers a woman's baby during a shootout, and is then called upon to protect the newborn from the army of gunmen. The film hits theaters on September 7th."

Wow, the film hasn't even been released yet and there's already talk of sequels. Let us hope that the first film is as good as it looks and does well at the box office. From what I have been reading, it's going to be a homage to "Sergio Leone, John Woo, and Looney Tunes," featuring scenes that involve a baby getting its umbilical cord shot off, a man being stabbed in the throat by a carrot, and more crazy scenes like that. If done right, I think this movie could be fucking awesome. I had posted the new kick-ass trailer for this movie the other day, check it out here.
