So when Austin ButlerA fan favorite to play a smaller version of Val KilmerPractice reloading the gun before shooting accurately, no fans the heat Scared…
According to Michael Mann, casting Heat 2 is very complicated
Let’s remember that Heat 2 This will be both a prequel and a sequel to the first film. The story, released last August, follows Neil McCauley (Robert De Niro), Chris Shirleys (Val Kilmer) and Vincent Hanna (Al Pacino) through the years leading up to a police saga in Los Angeles. It transports readers to Chicago in 1988, when McCauley, Schierlis and their high-powered team descended on the West Coast, the US-Mexico border, and Chicago. At the same time, Hanna cuts her teeth as a rising star on the Chicago police force chasing an ultra-violent gang. The book then tells what happens to the characters (who survived) in the years following the plot of the 1995 thriller that became a classic of the genre.
To play McCauley in the prequel scenes, Mann has reportedly set his sights on 40-year-old Adam Driver, with whom he got along very well at Ferrari. For the role of Lt. Hanna, Pacino has already proposed 28-year-old Timothée Chalamet, and for Schierlis, the name that comes up the most is Austin Butler, 32. For the moment, nothing official has been announced regarding this casting, but it is true that Butler and Kilmer have a definite resemblance.
