Recently we caught up with director Robert Rodriguez and took the opportunity to probe him for information about when we might get that second Machete sequel, Machete Kills in Space. Sadly he remained tight-lipped sharing only that “…that’s the eternal question. It’s possible, its definitely possible.”
We’ll happily take a possibility as the first two movies, which star Danny Trejo as an all-round Mexican badass, were a lot of fun and ooze booze, bullets and big name cast. It seems we’re not alone in our desire to see Machete return as Rodriguez told us that Mr Trejo is definitely up for a third round, “Danny’s always calling saying ‘when are we going to start? When are we going to start?‘”
Shooting won’t happen in the immediate future though as Robert’s hard at work on Alita: Battle Angel with James Cameron and will start shooting in around six months time. He also has Johnny Quest to work on and the third series of television spin-off From Dusk till Dawn.
