Charlie Sheen to appear in Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps
"When Gekko comes out of prison in the beginning of this movie, he essentially has to redefine himself, redefine his character," Mr. Stone said. "He's looking for that second chance."
The rest of the cast includes Shia LaBeouf as Jake Moore, a young trader who is the fiancé of Gekko's daughter, played by Carey Mulligan; Josh Brolin as the head of an investment bank; Frank Langella as Jake's mentor; and Susan Sarandon as Jake's mother. Charlie Sheen, who played the central role of Bud Fox, a young trader, in the original, will make a cameo in the sequel. Shooting for the film, which will be released by 20th Century Fox next April, begins this week in New York.
"We sort of started over with the story of a young man who is at the center of it, and how he needs Gordon Gekko's help to navigate those waters," said Alex Young, co-president of production at 20th Century Fox.

While waiting for Oliver Stone's "Wall Street 2" to come out, I found a movie about stock market corruption called "Stock Shock."
It exposes all sorts of market corruption. "Stock Shock" follows several Sirius XM investors through their experience of watching their stock go from almost ten dollars a share---down to 5 cents/share. "Stock Shock" suggests this might be due to "naked short selling" and other market manipulation by high rollers on Wall Street. I don't know if I'm a believer, but at least it gives a good review of how our stock markets are engineered. Amazon.com has it and stockshockmovie.com

The Narrator: The Better Man
The casting is literally near perfect. I mean Shia is a young, vulnerable actor, and he will play a young vulnerable, slightly power hungry man who get changed by the industry. I think its great! And of course the rest of the cast speaks for themselves. Except Susan Sarandon. I don't really like he. Other than that this will be something to see.

AnnoyingFilmCritic
Casting Charlie Sheen to reprise his Bud Fox role is great news! Oliver Stone writing & directing, Michael Douglas back as Gekko and Josh Brolin as an adversary is quite the ideal...the only flaw is casting Shia Overexposed LeBeouf...
