Not....the criminal movie with Gerard Butler sequel I wanted. 

[Jake Gittes]

Wonder what '90s and early '00s crime/police thrillers they're going to smash together into one movie (with no regard as to how well they fit together) this time. Seemed like the first one hit all the classics. 

[SLAM!]

There is a real chance the first film is able to do well on home release. My optimist may cause me to predict things that aren't likely, but after Pitch Perfect, I don't ever want to invalidate a sequel just because the first film's theatrical release was only a modest success. I'm willing to wait and see how this goes.

They better call it Den of 2hieves.

I liked Den of Thieves, though it seemed like the ending scene set up a Gerard Butler-less sequel perfectly.

[baumer]

I'm interested in this.  Yes, the end seemed to indicate t going without Butler, but that's easily fixable.

Yeah, the first trailer I saw for Den Of Thives I thought "The thing they are really stealing from is Heat".

Yeah it's the super sized burger version of Heat's lush restaurant meal basically but it's also got some Training Day, even some OG Fast and Furious and Bad Boys 2. And it ends very much like another '90s classic but it'd be a spoiler to say which one.

i definitely saw a clip that was like an exact rip-off of the reggie scene from bad boys 2 (aka the peak of michael bay's career)

Yeah it's in there. About as long, three times as many people, none of that same demented energy

[baumer]

I liked the Bad Boys 2 scene.

I liked the ending very much as well.

I've not seen Training Day, Fast and Furious or Bad Boys 2, and I don't like Heat, so I'm eyes wide open for den of Thieves

EXCLUSIVE: Action sequel Den Of Thieves 2: Pantera is gearing up for a late spring shoot in Serbia and France, we can reveal.

Gerard Butler (Angel Has Fallen), O’Shea Jackson Jr (Straight Outta Compton) and Meadow Williams (Boss Level) are back for the sequel and will be joined by Swen Temmel (After), while Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson is expected to join as a producer.

Butler returns as Big Nick (Butler), this time on the hunt in Europe for Donnie (Jackson Jr.) who is embroiled in the dangerous world of diamond thieves and the infamous Panther mafia as they plot a massive heist of the world’s biggest diamond exchange.
 

Christian Gudegast returns as writer-director. As he did before the first film, we hear Gudegast has researched for the project by spending time with notorious thieves and the investigators that hunt them.

 

Sierra/Affinity is continuing international sales at the upcoming virtual EFM after first launching the project at Cannes 2019. Some deals have already been inked with international buyers but the U.S. remains in play with multiple suitors currently weighing up a move for the project, we understand.

I haven't rewatched this since it came out but I wonder if I wasn't appreciative enough at the time. Big Nick has stayed with me. Glad to finally have him back

So I guess this won't move. Lionsgate has to move In The Grey then right? They have 3 action movies in January, one after the other.

January 10 - Den of Thieves

January 17 - In The Grey

January 24 - Flight Risk
