It’s taken nearly ten years, but the 1999 movie Boondock Saints is finally getting a sequel. Writer/director Troy Duffy announced the impending second movie Monday via a video blog posted on YouTube.
Duffy says, “We just completed our deal with Sony Pictures Studios to do the sequel to Boondock 2: All Saints Day, which should be shooting this summer.”
The original film is the story of two Irish brothers who set about knocking off mafia gang members in Boston. Willem Dafoe played a detective on their trail, who starts to question whether the men he’s pursuing might be doing them all a favor. No word yet on what the second film will involved, but Duffy says, “There’s a bunch of funky new roles, that you’re gonna see, and I think you’re gonna really like.”

I watched a documentary on the timeline of Boondock Saints. Did you see it? Those guys apparently had a band that got put aside in the process of trying to get a movie group to purchase the rights after they went through a terrible time just getting the movie shot. Seems they got on the bad side of a major Hollywood figure that blackballed them. The movie almost did not happen at all. The documentary ended with the guys basically busted up and broke.
Yes, I am really me. I'm very excited to see that you all are excited about the upcoming production, I know I cannot wait for it to be released its going to be terrific. Take care all of you.
