Director Robert Rodriguez's appearance at San Diego Comic-Con was chocked full of news on upcoming projects, including sequels to Sin City and Machete. Here's what he had to say about Sin City 2, which might finally happen this year, possibly in 3D.

"If Sin City 2 happens, it'll happen this year. I'd also love to do that in 3D - an idea that would translate really well to that format."


Robert Rodriguez also indicated that Sin City 2 will incorporate the graphic novel volume A Dame to Kill For, and two brand new stories written by Frank Miller, one of which is entitled The Long, Bad Night.

Machete is actually getting two sequels, according to Robert Rodriguez, who thanked the fans at his Hall H appearance for supporting the movie. Both sequels have been given the green light by Fox Searchlight, with the first sequel entitled Machete Kills.

"You guys were great about supporting Machete. The second one we're going right into now, Machete Kills."


The director also said that the other sequel, Machete Kills Again, will be a,
"space opera, a machete-shaped lightsaber. Machete kills in space."


Sin City was released April 1st, 2005 and stars Jessica Alba, Devon Aoki, Alexis Bledel, Powers Boothe, Cara D. Briggs, Jude Ciccolella, Jeffrey J. Dashnaw, Rosario Dawson. The film is directed by Frank Miller, Robert Rodriguez, Quentin Tarantino.

    Yeah, I'm all for a Sin City sequel, wish it had already been done really but Machete isn't as important to me. I'm sure I'll check it out eventually though.

    @SomethingMore Sin City had way more than Alba working for it. Rourke, Owen, Willis, Dawson, Bledel, and Wood were all excellent in the film.

    @jimthar ur right, he's starting too many movies and he'll be too busy, and sin City 2 will have to be put on hold.

    who here wants to bet that he does machete first and that SC2 languishes in development while he drifts off to do HEAVY METAL 2 and forgets SC2.

    God 6 years for a sequel is too long... then again not many movies do well after more than a decade wait for a sequel.. take for example INDIANA JONES AND THE KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL....sigh =/

    Key word: If. That isn't confirmation in the least. Until it happens, it's still a dream. As for Machete, I don't care in the least. Sin City 2 is the only priority Rodriguez should have.
