Mann planning prequel/sequel


https://theplaylist.net/heat-michael-mann-sequel-prequel-20200515/

a sequel could bring back Pacino, Kilmer, Portman, Judd in varying degrees of supporting roles but obviously have younger big name actors for the leads like Colin Farrel, Depp, Hardy, Pitt, Bale etc..(I cant imagine any big name actor in the 40s-50s range who would not jump at the chance to be in a new Heat movie directed by Mann).

a prequel would probably be about young Hanna and/or McCauley (maybe CGI like Irishman? ILM must have all that Pacino/Deniro face mapping stuff saved right? )

Godfather II structure:

Prequel scenes: Young Pacino: Oscar Issac. Young DeNiro: Bobby Cannavale. Young Kilmer: Austin Butler. (or DF better than Irishman!)

Sequel scenes: Pacino. Portman. Kilmer. Voight (and whoever else like Ryan Gosling, Depp, Ana De Armes etc)

"We are on the verge of Michael Mann releasing his highly-anticipated “Heat” follow-up novel"
its still a novel . and not a published one yet at that!

apart from "MM wants it to happen"?

Michael Mann Eyeing ‘Heat 2’ As Next Film With Warner Bros In Negotiations With Director To Board Sequel; Adam Driver In Talks With Mann To Play Young Neil McCauley

reply

Adam Driver is too ugly to play a young De Niro.

reply

Christ, somebody surely loves Adam Driver in Hollywood, or he has a helluva agent. I'm fed up with his wooden presence.

I feel like this is one of those deals where they should've left well enough alone.. HEAT has the Perfect Cast for 1995 when this was made.. Does anyone truly want to see these actors now almost 30 years later??
