Filmmakers Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller, along with producer Alexander Rodnyansky, have announced that production will commence on the highly anticipated sequel to 2005Âs Sin City, entitled Sin City: A Dame To Kill For.
The film will be produced by AR Films and Quick Draw Productions, financed through AR Films U.S and released domestically by Dimension Films.
ÂThe first question I am always asked is ÂWhen will you make another Sin City? said Rodriquez.  ÂI have wanted to re-team with Frank Miller and return to the world he created since the day we wrapped the original, but have felt a duty to the fans to wait until we had something truly exceptional that would meet and exceed what have become epic expectations.  A Dame To Kill For will certainly be worth the wait.ÂÂ
Sin City creator, screenwriter and co-director Frank Miller said, ÂThe first Sin City knocked out audiences who had never seen anything like it before. Robert Rodriguez and I are going to shake things up and deliver a ferocious film experience that is going to go even further than the first.ÂÂ
The script and details of the filmÂs story have been kept tightly under wraps. Casting will begin next week, with many of the original cast expected to return. Â The film, a Quick Draw Production, will be produced by Rodriguez and producing partners Aaron Kaufman and Iliana Nikolic; and by Alexander Rodnyansky and Sergei Bespalov and Stephen LÂHereux. Miller, The Weinstein CompanyÂs Harvey and Bob Weinstein and MiramaxÂs Adam Fields will act as executive producers.
Sin City: A Dame to Kill For was developed by Frank Miller based upon his graphic novel, with a screenplay by Frank Miller and Academy Award winner William Monahan (The Departed). The film is expected to begin production this summer at RodriguezÂs Troublemaker Studios in Austin, Texas.
