Regardless of their characters having died within the second movie, Lou Diamond Phillips & Christian Slater are returning.
After years of rumours, it seems like Younger Weapons 3 is lastly taking place. Emilio Estevez confirmed the information himself at Movie and Media Day on the New Mexico State Capitol. “We’ve started the ball rolling on Young Guns 3,” with him including, ”I’ve heard all of the jokes: Outdated Weapons, Historic Weapons. You’ll be able to maintain on to these.” In an official press launch from the workplace of New Mexico governor Michelle Lujan Grisham, the movie’s title was listed as Younger Weapons 3: Useless or Alive, with it additional revealed Estevez could be directing the movie himself (on location in New Mexico), having additionally co-written the script with franchise common John Fusco.
The report additionally says Lou Diamond Phillips and Christian Slater can be returning, which can elevate just a few eyebrows. Why? Properly, for those who bear in mind Younger Weapons 2, each characters died, though, conveniently, neither was killed on-screen. Phillips’s Chavez, who was mortally wounded, rode off to fulfill his destiny alone, whereas Slater’s Arkansas Dave was apparently beheaded in Mexico, a future we by no means observe with it solely revealed within the film’s epilogue. In fact, Emilio Esteves’s Billy the Child survived his generally accepted destiny, with him being allowed to get away by the film’s model of Pat Garrett, performed by William Petersen.
Whereas a Younger Weapons 3 has been much-rumoured lately, it seems like Estevez is useless critical about making it this time. It additionally is sensible that he would direct the movie, having made a number of acclaimed movies over time, together with the RFK movie Bobby, The Public, and, for my part, his greatest movie – The Means – which starred his father. Who is aware of, possibly Estevez will discover a solution to carry again another franchise vets like Kiefer Sutherland and his brother, Charlie Sheen, though their characters are extra definitively useless.
