Variety:
Source Code 2″ is ramping up development with Anna Foerster signed on to direct the follow up to the science fiction thriller, sources confirm.
The Mark Gordon Company and Vendome Pictures are returning to produce with Vendome again financing the project. “Source Code” screenwriter Ben Ripley is back to write the script for the new installment.
The original “Source Code,” which starred Jake Gyllenhal, was a respectable performer at the box office in 2011, earning $54 million domestically and $147 million worldwide on an estimated $30 million budget for Summit. No distributor or actor is currently attached to “Source Code 2.”
See, what did I just say, and I didn't even know there was going to be a sequel to this movie....he's staying really busy now.
I liked Source Code; it was the best chance I took on an obscure Netlix pick since Russell Brand's Arthur, which is to say I'd recommend both. Don't know what the heck they'd do with the character after they already spoiled us with the revelation, but looking forward to whatever it is.
I thought the movie was boring. The same scene happening over and over again but with slightly different changes. And it became predictable because the choices were limited.
