Hollywood, CA: Recently, Sylvester Stallone and Harrison Ford have announced new sequels for the Rocky Balboa, Indiana Jones, and Rambo series. Faced with renewed audience enthusiasm with these hoary film legends, the studios have unveiled several new projects currently on the planning boards, including:
- Pretty Woman II: Back on the Streets. Julia Roberts has announced she will reprise her titular character in a new, 'gritty' film about a 40-something whore thrown back onto the streets by her angry millionaire ex-husband. According to the actress, "It was a role I could really sink my teeth into."
- The Magnificent Eight: Steve McQueen and Yul Brynner reprise their famous roles as hired gunmen and mercenaries in this epic western. A Paramount spokesmen said that because of the liberal use of 'movie magic', the chronic case of death of both men won't affect their performance.
- Scarface 2 / From Dusk Till Dawn 4. Tony Montana rises from the dead to feast on the blood of his enemies. According to director Quentin Tarentino, " Conceptually this move was a challenge to make, especially because it makes no sense."
- James Bond 22: A Stitch In Time. According to a spokesman, "Mr. Craig makes an excellent Bond and we have already optioned him for Bond 23. However in order to capitalize on the popularity and momentum of Casino Royale, the studio has assembled a movie from outtakes and deleted scenes from the previous 21 films." Critics who have screened the movie report that it has an 'all-star cast' and the most coherent plot of the series.
