  • Predators Script Review: "Awesome"

    PredatorLatinoReview managed to get a copy of the script for Predators, the sequel written and produced by Robert Rodriguez and directed by Nimrod Antal. The script, dated July 12, 2009, was described as "awesome" and a "90-page kick-ass sci-fi action movie worthy of the original" that is a "bloody, violent, hard-R script."

    Fanboy enthusiasm aside, the review also outlines the plot of movie. Predators follows Royce, who, after a rooftop gun battle, is kidnapped by a Predator and brought back to the Predator home planet where he is thrown in with 7 tough-as-nails humans, mostly criminals who are "predators in their own right." The group of humans have been assembled as prey for the Predators to hunt and must try to survive in the jungle preserve of the Predator home planet. They are hunted by "Predator dogs, Predator falcons," and a "Black Super Predator," described as a "Predator jacked up on steroids."

    The script also reveals a possible cameo for Arnold Schwarzenegger. Rodriguez has already reached out to the Governator, but there's no word yet on whether he will return.

    While the cast of humans hasn't been set, Danny Trejo, Rodriguez's upcoming lead in Machete, recently said "we'll be doing Predator[s] next," revealing he has been cast in the project. The script review speculates that Trejo will play Cuchillo, a "Mexican enforcer" who has "twin Uzis strapped to his back."

  • Danny Trejo Says Sin City 2 Is Only a "Thought Process"

    Sin CityRobert Rodriguez's adaptation of Frank Miller's Sin City line of graphic novels was a critically acclaimed and commercially successful film, and fans have been clamoring for a sequel since the first one debuted four years ago.

    Just when it started to appear doubtful that a sequel would ever be made, Clive Owen, who starred in the first one as Dwight, said last week that "a very good souce" told him that production could begin next year. Then a few days later, actor Danny Trejo told Punch Drunk Critics there are no concrete plans for a sequel.

    It's kind of in the works ... we're going to do Predator[s] next. So, Sin City [2] is kind of like a, you know, a thought process. We'll be doing Predator[s] in about a month.

    It's unclear what involvement in the Sin City 2 sequel Trejo will have, if any, but he's appeared in a number of director Robert Rodriguez's films in the past so an acting role in SC2 is not unlikely. Most recently, Trejo wrapped filming on Machete, an "expoitation film" based on the fake trailer that appeared in Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino's Grindhouse. According to Trejo, Machete, scheduled to open in 2010, will be "pretty true to the trailer" in theme and tone.

  • Lindsay Lohan May Star in Robert Rodriguez's Machete

    Comic-Con 2009: San Diego

    Lindsay Lohan

    MTV reports that Robert Rodriguez is trying to sign Lindsay Lohan for Machete, his feature-length extension of the fake trailer he shot for Grindhouse.

    In an interview at Comic-Con, Rodriguez said he already has her in mind.

    Lindsay's cool. There's actually a cool part in the movie for her — if she takes it.

    Danny Trejo, who played the title character in the trailer, is already on board to reprise his role, and Rodriguez added that he's courting several other big stars.

    We've cast nobody but Danny and Michelle Rodriguez, but we've sent the script out to a lot of people. There are a lot of people we're sending it to, big names — but nobody that we've signed yet ... Next week, or maybe the week after, probably while we're actually shooting.

    Other stars rumored for Machete are Robert De Niro and Jonah Hill. The movie goes into production in a few weeks and is slated for release sometime in 2010.
