Almost 20 years later, Nicolas Cage will return for a ‘Lord of War’ sequel:
In the original film, Cage’s Orlov takes viewers into the world of illegal arms dealing. As that synopsis suggests, Niccol based the character on real-life arms dealers.
Here was Niccol’s comment on the news of this sequel, which is coming almost 20 years after the original film. There is so much more to explore with these characters... Plato said it best – ‘Only the dead have seen the end of war.’ I’m looking forward to spending more time in the company of the charming devil that is Yuri Orlov and now his illegitimate son – who turns out to not be legitimate in any way.
FilmNation will be looking to sell international rights to the movie at the Cannes Film Festival later this month. The original grossed about $72 million in theaters worldwide against a reported budget of $50 million.These movies took their directors’ own lives, and turned them into amazing works of art.
