The Departed 2?
Mark Wahlberg, who is up for a Best Supporting Actor Oscar for his role in the 2006 thriller The Departed, tells EmpireOnline, “They told me they wanted to try to do a sequel and I said, ‘Well, I enjoyed playing the character.’
“They’re talking about bringing in (Robert) De Niro to play a senator or a congressman. You know, the corruption obviously going deeper and higher up the ranks - reaching up the political chain. So it’ll be fun.” And if it’s a success, they’re gonna do a prequel and bring everyone back…make it a trilogy.”
The film’s writer William Monahan has already started work on the sequel, which which will focus on the rogue police officer played by Wahlberg.
The Departed was one of my FAVORITE movies of 2006, so I’d LOVE to see a sequel.
