While the 2008 comic book adaptation
"Wanted" was met with a lot of enthusiasm both by critics and audiences alike, it seems that the idea of a sequel wasn't. After a very long period of uncertainty and because of Angelina Jolie turning down the chance to reprise her role from the first film, nobody thought that Universal was going to move forward with the sequel. All it took was one tweet to turn things around and rekindle fanboy hopes :
"Michael and I were just hired by Uni to write WANTED 2". This was written by Derek Haas, referring to co-writer Michael Brandt and the message is quite obvious. Both Haas and Brandt wrote the script for the first
"Wanted", so it seems Universal doesn't want to break up a winning team. It is unknown at this time if Timur Bekmambetov will return to direct. Haas recently declared that the sequel is
"going to take off after the events of what just happened" and the story will
"pick up Wesley a few years later and go back in for another round."
