Midnight Run Sequel in Development
As much as Robert De Niro's Analyze This did NOT need a sequel, one film that begged for one was 1988's Midnight Run, which cast him as bounty hunter Jack Walsh who is trying to get a white collar criminal (Charles Grodin) back to L.A. by a certain time. Finally a sequel is in the works.
Notes The Hollywood Reporter, "Timothy Dowling, the writer behind Universal's comedy Role Models, is being brought on board to pen the script that would bring back De Niro's character, Jack Walsh, and pair him with a younger comedic foil. Run, while not a huge hit, was well-recieved by critics, even as it pushed the f-word count to new heights. The movie is also a touchstone for execs on road movies as well as thriller-comedies."
Dowling actually got his start on the short film George Lucas in Love.
