Insider News and Rumors' column reports today that TOM CRUISE
continues to move forward with his "Death Race 3000"
project. The report states
that TOM CRUISE will not only produce but probably star in "Death
Race 3000" as well.
The film is set to be directed by PAUL ANDERSON ("Soldier,"
"Event Horizon") from a script by JONATHON LAWTON
("Pretty Woman," "Under Siege"). According to the report LAWTON
"would really like to get SYLVESTER STALLONE to come back
to reprise his role as Machine-Gun Joe Viterbo" from the
original "Death Race 2000." LAWTON is quoted as saying, "Machine-Gun
Joe is definitely part of the story. It would be a great casting decision."
One would have thought that "Death Race
2000" would be one of the least likely movies from SLY's
filmography to get a sequel... but, and this is a BIG but, if
TOM CRUISE does decide to produce and star in "DR3000,"
then SLY should jump on board!
