Italian filmmaker Stefano
Sollima ("Gomorra") is in negotiations with Lionsgate to direct the sequel
to Denis Villeneuve's 2015 action drama Sicario.
Titled Soldado, or
soldier in English, the film will focus on Benicio Del Toro's Alejandro character
from the first film.
Until recently, Green
Room director Jeremy Saulnier was considered to be the frontrunner to replace Villeneuve
who is in post-production for Story of Your Life and in pre-production on the
yet untitled Blade Runner sequel, but he couldn't fit the film in his schedule.
Also returning is
James Brolin as the morally flexible CIA agent Matt Graver. Emily Blunt will
not reprise her role as FBI agent Kate Macer.
