Sly to Direct “Driven 2”

In the Reel World column of Entertainment Weekly, the following item appears:

SLY NEWS: SYLVESTER STALLONE is pining to direct “Driven 2” [we must have missed the avalanche of “popular demand” for that particular follow-up] but he says first he’d like to tackle “an ambitious project that deals with a historical event.” Maybe he’s up for a Rambo sequel after all… [Additional reporting by William Keck]

SLY: TO DIRECT A DRIVEN SEQUEL?

In the Reel World column in the June 22, 2001 issue of Entertainment Weekly, the following item appears:

SLY NEWS: SYLVESTER STALLONE is pining to direct Driven 2 (we must have missed the avalanche of “popular demand” for that particular follow-up) but he says first he’d like to tackle “an ambitious project that deals with a historical event.” Maybe he’s up for a Rambo sequel after all… (Additional reporting by William Keck)

This is especially good news for all STALLONE fans: 1) That Sly is getting the itch to direct again (Think about HUNTER, Sly!) and 2) He is planning an ambitious project dealing with a historical event… could it be the mining disaster pic that Sly’s alluded to in the past?
