“It’s Looking Fantastic”: Sylvester Stallone Teases a ‘Demolition Man’ Sequel in the Works!
We’ll soon be heading back to the future and dining at Taco Bell in a sequel to 1993’s Demolition Man, star Sylvester Stallone teased in an Instagram Q&A over the weekend.
The Marco Brambilla-directed sci-fi/action movie is set in the year 2032, centered on two men – Stallone and Wesley Snipes – who were cryogenically frozen in the 1990s. Snipes plays the evil criminal Simon Phoenix while Stallone plays good guy cop John Spartan, and the two are forced to renew their battle when they’re re-animated in a much different future.
Stallone’s character survives the film, which grossed $159 million at the box office back in 1993, and it looks like Warner Bros. is finally ready to pull the trigger on a sequel!
“We’re working on it right now with Warner Bros. and it’s looking fantastic,” Stallone said on Instagram this past weekend. “So that should come out. That’s going to happen.”

Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”

Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
