Hey, there’s a new Sin City movie coming out in 2013! Of course it probably would have been for the best if this had happened five years ago — Mickey Rourke has already re-ruined his career, Frank Miller gets crazier by the minute and Jessica Alba, well, Jessica Alba is still pretty hot at least.
Anyways, here’s some casting news — Jessica Alba, Mickey Rourke, Rosario Dawson and Jaimie King are all returning for the sequel. Clive Owen and Devon Aoki will not be returning. Jamie Chung is going to be replacing Aoki, which I’m going to go ahead and deem a mild upgrade. No word on who might replace Owen — folks who have read the comics know Dwight (the character Owen played) gets fairly extensive plastic surgery at one point, so really it could be anyone.
Also, the rumored casting of Angelina Jolie is no longer happening. Not surprising — she has like, 18 kids to take care of. Clearly she doesn’t even have time to eat these days. It should be noted this move has already started filming despite the fact no replacements for Owen and Jolie have been decided on yet. Hoo boy. Sin City: Train Wreck in the Making, er I mean Sin City: A Dame to Kill For is set to come out October of next year.

They’ve been pretty aggressively canvassing for extras down here lately as well.
Over/Under on Rourke being fired from/quitting this movie? 6 months
I’m pretty sure Clive Owen not returning isn’t official yet. Since Dwight does undergo the facial reconstruction during the story, he could come back and wear elaborate make-up prior to the surgery, then once the surgery occurs he’ll look like normal Clive Owen.
Is Jessica Alba some kind of financial wizard? There’s no way she can be living off her residuals. Don’t we have to be getting close to blah, blah, blah essential to the character, blah, blah blah, tastefully done territory?
Um considering she has been in almost twenty movies since 2000 I HIGHLY doubt that she has money issues. Combined with the fact that she has had multiple endorsements from clothing and makeup sponsors she ain’t doin too bad at all.
Give it time. She’s not young anymore. And pretty soon she won’t look it either. Then when the phone stops ringing, you see what happens. ::tips glass:: Here’s to her Playboy spread in 2024 when she pulls a Debbie Gibson.
^^Shit, son, got you big ol’ belly full of Haterade up in this sumbitch, aintcha?!
