‘Turbo Kid 2’ Officially Announced!
Yesterday brought the incredible Le Matos music video for “No Tomorrow”, which acted as a prequel to 2015’s festival darling Turbo Kid (review). It told the story of Apple (Laurence Leboeuf) and her companion, who dies pretty much right away. The ending of the video shows that the companion is the same skeletal remains she has when first introduced in the film.
Now, filmmakers Yoann-Karl Whissell, Anouk Whissell, and François Simard have told Journal de Montreal that a sequel is officially in the works and it will take place immediately after the events of the first film!
Yoann-Karl explains, “It will be a direct sequel to the first film, taking action where it ended. No other details have been released and it isn’t confirmed if Munro Chambers of Leboeuf will be reprising their roles as “The Kid” and Apple, respectively.
In the first film, “In a post-apocalyptic future, The Kid, an orphaned outcast, meets a mysterious girl. They become friends until Zeus, the sadistic leader of the Wasteland, kidnaps her. The Kid must face his fears, and journey to rid the Wasteland of evil and save the girl.“
Sony returns to their own Marvel universe with the upcoming Kraven the Hunter, which has been bumped all over the release schedule. This week, it’s been bumped once more.
There was a time when Sony was going to unleash Kraven in theaters in October 2023, but the film was then bumped to August 2024. It’ll now release on December 13, 2024.
Kraven the Hunter will be the very first Marvel movie from Sony to be released into theaters with an “R” rating, with lots of bloody violence being promised.
Aaron Taylor-Johnson stars as the title character, Marvel’s ultimate predator.
“Kraven the Hunter is the visceral story about how and why one of Marvel’s most iconic villains came to be. Set before his notorious vendetta with Spider-Man, Aaron Taylor-Johnson stars as the titular character in the R-rated film.”
Ariana DeBose will play Calypso in the upcoming Kraven the Hunter movie.
Christopher Abbott (Possessor) is playing The Foreigner, with Levi Miller (Better Watch Out) also on board. Alessandro Nivola (The Many Saints of Newark) will play another villain, but character details are under wraps. Russell Crowe and Fred Hechinger also star.
J.C. Chandor (A Most Violent Year) is directing Kraven the Hunter.
The screenplay was written by Art Marcum & Matt Holloway and Richard Wenk.
