We may have been down out out for the past 48 hours – but I am glad to bring you the news of the day. It appears Steven Segal is in talks to do an Under Siege 3. We get this glorious scoop from our friends at the movieweb:
“There are offers and we’re looking at them,” Seagal said. Apparently, he has some ideas about where the film should go as well.
“I personally want it to be something more modern,” said Seagal. “In other words, I wouldn’t mind if it was about something more mystical or…maybe extraterrestrial in nature. Some real government top secrets instead of just the typical.”
Something more mystical or extraterrestrial …In a sub! I sincerely hope we get to see Steven Segal save the earth from an alien crisis using his fists alone. This will be intergalactic diplomacy in the spirit of James T Kirk. With luck he will fight an alien with multiple arms or 8 foot long appendages. I want to see him fold an 8 foot alien arm up like laundry!
As far as the mystical enemy, I have no idea where he is going with this. I just hope in preparation for battle we see another scene of him meditating with accupuncture incense rods sticking out of his body. Segal is a focused and spiritual man. He is a warrior shaman, an old soul; if anyone could battle the mystical with his fists I’m certain it would be him.
We will be sure to follow this news. It’s always cause for celebration when fabled action heroes come back for another. Sly Stallone recently reminded us that age has jack shit to do with the quality of your action. The latest Rambo was the craziest war carnage I have have seen in ages.
I hope this happens and am excited at the prospect. International Friends; would you prefer mystical or extraterrestrial foes for Steven in his next picture, and why?
