SIN CITY 2 Still Flashing That Elusive Carrot

It appears every once in awhile we are going to get a little morsel of information about a SIN CITY 2 film that is just going to drive fan reaction into a frenzy and carry the notion that the film is actually going to happen for another couple of months.  At this stage of the game, we will be lucky to ever see  SIN CITY 2, particularly one that is A) directed by Robert Rodriguez or B) nearly as compelling and fascinating as the first one.  Today comes that little bit of news for the end of 2009, and it comes to us from Comics 2 Film at Mania.com.

They caught up with producer Stephen L’Heureux who confirmed that SIN CITY 2 would be rolling before cameras in the second half of 2010.  As with the first film, Frank Miller will be co-directing with Rodriguez, but, unlike the first film, this one will not be based on one of Miller’s graphic novels.  Instead, it will be a wholly original screenplay written by Miller for the screen.

L’Heureux also had this to say:

There’s also talk, of course, of ‘Sin City 3‘.

Pardon my cynicism, but I will believe it when I see it.

What do you think?  Will SIN CITY 2 actually happen?  What do you think of it being an original screenplay by Miller?  Which characters from the first film would you just be clamoring to see more of?  Let us know by commenting below.
