Smokin' Aces 2 Blowback Movie Details
'Smokin' Joe Carnahan tells his fans on his Smokin’ Aces sequel on his Joe Carnahan website. Smokin' Aces 2 will be called Blowback, and it will be a prequel instead of a sequel. The plot outline was so strong that it has been given the go ahead to begin production by Universal Studios. On July 17, 2007 Joe Carnahan said “So Universal has given us the greenlight to begin". Carnahan also added that the prequel to the original Smokin' Aces, Smokin' Aces: Blowback, will go straight to DVD. The speculation around Blowback plot is that it will focus on the Tremor Brothers.
"So Universal has given us the greenlight to begin the prequel script and done so with great enthusiasm. They were as adamant about NOT doing a prequel as I was about doing one but since the Nigerians NAILED the outline, they all got hipped and jumped at it. If all bodes well, we’ll have a completed script inside 8 weeks and be shooting 10 weeks later.” On Joe Carnahan's blog he stated that "Smokin Aces: Blowback looks like it's about to ramp up hard. They flipped for the script. Not a single note. Not that we can't get in there and really do some story work and fine tuning but it looks pretty damn good right now... I'd love to find a way to work our regulars into cameos in the flick. I've put my mind to this and we'll devise something slick to give some camera love to the loyalists."
