"Leon 2?"

No thanks. Portman says she'll have "to hit the gym." Does this mean kung fu Portman? With, apparently, Jet Li? As the evil bullet time villian?

Nah, I'll pass.

Unless it has zombie Reno in it, back from the dead and gunning for Zorg.

They would have to get another great actor to be a villain like....Alan Rickman then it could be good.

Rickman versus Portman? Tempting. Rickman is probably my favourite actor. As long as they don't do the Jet Li thing. And as long as they do, in fact, bring back the zombie Reno a la Snuggly. Zorg is optional.

Loved the first one, this will probably kill it - plus natalie portman doesnt have a cool patchy beard :-(

You find that a bad thing? I fear you.

Leon was a classic - but how can they do a Leon 2? He's dead.

It'll be a generic action film, like Robocop 2 compared to the first. They won't even attempt to make it anything like the first, they'll just put more guns in it.

Luc Besson hasn't exactly produced a great deal of good films lately, and I'm still scarred by that god awful Joan of Arc film he dumped out a few years ago. Like Mojo said, Leon 2 will probably be your bog standard, throw away action film, it might be fun but much like the current crop of Jet Li action films it'll also be very forgettable.

Matilda: "It was 10 years ago to the day that Leon took me in and trained me. He killed the scumbags that murdered my drug-dealing father, the sister I always hated, the mother who never cared and my brother. Using the skills I learnt from Leon, I have become a cleaner. However, I only clean out the scum."
