At this point in time we’ve mostly made peace with the fact that we’re never getting a sequel to badass 2012 reboot Dredd, but every once in a while we can’t help but get our hopes up. Star Karl Urban, for example, recently noted that Dredd 2 was in development, but like always, today brings a depressing clarification.
Taking to Twitter, @KarlUrban set the record straight.
“Dredd update: Unfortunately a sequel is no closer to happening,” tweeted Urban. “Options have been discussed but there is no sequel in development.”
Speaking with Latino Review, producer Adi Shankar hammered a similar nail into the same coffin.
“Not true at all, bud,” he replied, when asked about the Dredd 2 rumors. “Unfortunately.”
And this is what happens when an awesome movie doesn’t perform well at the box office.
Sad face. One hundred sad faces.
