Machette Sequel on the way

[Wangman Page]

It’s official. In a stunning turn of events that almost certainly mean it’s Opposite Day, Robert Rodriguez will make a movie he promised he’d make. Jokes aside, Deadline Michoacan is reporting that Rodriguez has secured the financing for Machete Kills, the sequel to the absurdly ballsy action flick starring Danny Trejo.

Talks are under way to bring Trejo back on in the hopes of an April production start, and Rodriguez is pointing to the bleachers, claiming a bigger, badder movie. As proof, the second film in a planned trilogy will feature Machete as a hired gun for the government, heading into Mexico to take on a drug cartel and a vicious bad guy who plans to build a space weapon. Yes, it’s getting even deeper into spoof territory with an Austin Powers twist.

This character sure has come a long way since Spy Kids, right?

I loved Machette I hope this one delivers as well.

Sounds awesome to me, the first one was great. I wonder who they'll get to play the lead villain this time around?

Jean Claude Van Damme would crack me up if they chose him. Not sure who they would choose.

I would have liked to see Trejo go up against David Carradine. Guess that can't happen now thanks to the nylons.

That would be an epic fight.

I loved the first one. A sequel sounds awesome. Machete was one of the better action movies to come out in recent years. It is to bad that Stallone couldn't put Trejo in The Expendables sequel.

First one was great, I've got no problem with a sequel!
