plain Director Jean-François Richet will return for the sequel as an executive producer with Madriver Pictures, De Bonaventura Pictures and G-BASE Productions. We understand that Gerard Butler will not star in it but may have a cameo appearance.
International sales agency Veterans EFM will discuss the project with buyers in anticipation of shooting in late 2023. CAA media finance is resisting domestic rights. It is said that talks are going on with the writers and directors.
The follow-up will focus on Colter’s character plainAccused murderer and former French Legionnaire Louis Gasper, who escaped extradition in Toronto when Trailblazer Flight 119 went down in the Philippines, forms an unlikely partnership with Butler’s Captain Brody Torrance to rescue the plane’s passengers and crew from pirates.
The story will pick up where Gaspare’s storyline left off — with Jolo disappearing into the island jungle. After a high-octane showdown with local militias off the coast of Jolo, Gaspare manages to commandeer a fishing boat and escape the Philippines. But the media circus surrounding Flight 119 raised its public profile, making it the subject of an international manhunt. Hoping to stay under the radar and far from his last known location, Gaspare boarded an East Asian cargo ship bound for South Africa. As he settles in for a long voyage, the stowaway discovers that the ocean liner is transporting more than goods—it’s also being used as a ferry for a human-trafficking ring.
With the ship’s second mate/navigator, a last-minute addition to the crew unaware of its illegal activities, and a passenger with military experience and a bone to pick, Gaspar embarks on a mission to bring down the ship’s corrupt captain, keeping its innocent passengers safe. Keep and free its prisoners.
