On Thursday, Producer-Director Robert Rodriguez (@Rodriguez) tweeted out this first poster for the second film in the Machete trilogy.

Lady Gaga also took to Twitter to confirm her part in the movie:
Yes its true, I will be making my debut as an actress ln the amazing MACHETE KILLS BY @RODRIGUEZ IM SO EXCITED!!! AH! Filming was insane.
Gaga + Rodriguez = brilliance. Even more so by releasing all this info on MACHETE KILLS via the 21st century version of a newspaper – social networking.
In late June Rodriguez sent out this photo, “I just cast Charlie Sheen in #machetekills as the President of the United States! Who better?”
In the upcoming film, Machete is mourning the loss of his beloved Sartana, slain during a run in with the cartels. Machete is recruited by the President of the United States for a mission which would be impossible for any mortal man. Machete must battle his way through Mexico to take down a cartel leader, Mendez the Madman, who threatens to fire a missile on the US. Machete foils Mendez’s plot only to find that the missiles are remote wired to and triggered by the madman’s still beating heart. The only man who can disarm the missile is eccentric billionaire arms dealer, Luther Voz, who has hatched a plan of his own to spread war across the planet with a weapon in space. Machete takes on Voz and his army in order dismantle his master plan for global anarchy.
Machete made his first appearance in a “fake” trailer in Rodriguez’s 2007 Grindhouse. The first film, Machete, starred Danny Trejo, Jessica Alba, Michelle Rodriguez, Jeff Fahey and Robert De Niro, was released in 2009 to strong box office and overwhelming home video success. Rodriguez’s next film, FRANK MILLER’S SIN CITY: A DAME TO KILL FOR (3D), will be released in 2014.
Starring Danny Trejo, Jessica Alba, Michelle Rodriguez, Amber Heard, Sofia Vergara, Antonio Banderas, Demian Bichir, Alexa Vega, Mel Gibson, Charlie Sheen, and Lady Gaga, MACHETE KILLS will be in theaters in 2013.
