Update on A Dame To Kill For

I was reading this the other day and this got me very excited....there have been some new confirmed cast members to this sequel to the first Sin City. Not Only this but according to The Playlist blog this Sin City:A Dame To Kill For is set to be released in October, four weeks after Machete Kills another of Robert Rodriguez's films that is set to be released on September 13th.

According to IndieWire's The Playlist blog Jeremy Piven who is at the moment starring in ITV's Mr. Selfridge, Juno Temple who was in Batman:The Dark Knight Rises as Selina Kyle's partner in crime and Ray Liotta who was in the fantastic Goodfellas and Smokin' Aces with Jeremy Piven who in that film played Buddy Israel who was going to give his heart to his father who turned out to be an FBI agent turned mafia head.

Also this morning I read on Empire's website that to add to the excitement of Joseph-Gordan-Levitt, Jaime King playing Wendy/Goldie, Rosario Dawson who is back to resume her role as the head of the prostitutes in old town, Jamie Chung who will play Miho who in the original Sin City helped Dwight out of the bogs when he blown up from the car that was carrying the dead body of Jack the cop that Dwight killed, Jessica Alba who will resume her role as Nancy Callaghan and Mickey Rourke who will resume his role as Marv...but I just thought that both Bruce Willis's character and Mickey Rourke's character who got the electric chair in Sin City so how is he going to be ressurected?

According though to The Playlist which did an interview with Frank Miller last year:

" Sin City number two is primarily an adaption of the book "A Dame To Kill For" ...It also features the short story , "Just Another Saturday Night" and two new stories . One involving Jessica Alba's character, Nancy Callahan, that I came up for the movie in order to tie things together and make it be more united with the first."

So however they get Marv and Hardigan back from the grave it might make a lot more sense than some of the other films that I've seen.

The Playlist also reported last year that William Monahan who wrote the script for The Departed has been signed on to make sure they have the script all signed sealed delivered so that they can start the cameras rolling and work from a screenplay.

So however the stories will be adapted I think it's safe to say that with the writer of The Departed on the books this film will be just as good if not on a par with the first Sin City, or even like The Departed with clever smart writing.
