To all of those who haven’t seen the end of the first “Wanted” movie and don’t know how it ends… you may want to stop reading because we’re about to get into spoiler territory so stop reading if you don’t want to know more:
Angelina Jolie dies at the end of the first film, sacrificing herself to take out a bunch of assassins trying to kill James McAvoy’s character.
We’ve known for some time that a “Wanted 2″ was going to be coming our way… what we haven’t been sure about is if they would try to find a way to bring back Jolie’s character. Looks like they are indeed going to try just that. When asked about it recently, director Timur Bekmambetov said this (quoted from Latino Review):
“If you remember from the first film, we have a recovery room with the baths of wax,” Bekmambetov told MTV News. “We know how to do this, but it’s still tough to do, because the bullet is inside her head.”
“But there has to be a reason for her to come back… and we know the reason,” he added. “I think we found the reason for her to come back.”
The filmmaker said the story behind her return from the dead still trumps all other elements, but “we are trying hard.”
So what do you think? Does Jolie’s presence in “Wanted 2″ have any influence on your enthusiasm or lack thereof for the project?
