It's A Go For Eastern Promises 2

09 August 2010 - News - Now Filming

Cassel and Mortensen will return

This news comes to us courtesy of our friends over at Comingsoon.net, who clearly had a fruitful chat with Vincent Cassel during his promotion of the US release of Mesrine, the two-part film in which he plays the titular infamous French gangster. Cassel confirmed that he would be returning for a sequel to the 2007 crime thriller directed by David Cronenberg, which seems to be in its early stages.

Cassel will return to the role of Kirill, the unstable son of a Russian mob boss who raped a 14-year-old girl who came to them for protection. Apparently he discussed ideas for the sequel with Cronenberg on the set of his current movie, A Dangerous Method. "We talked very seriously about Eastern Promises 2 and it's going to be shot in Russia with Viggo [Mortensen] and myself," the French actor told Comingsoon.

In the near future we'll also be seeing Cassel in Darren Aronofsky's thriller Black Swan and in an updated version of the tale of the classic French literary villain Fantômas, to be directed by Christophe Gans.
