Exclusive: “Sin City 2″ in Prouction Next Year?

Like chasing a carrot on a stick, we’ve been looking for official word on the “Sin City” sequel for a while now, but it always seems to remain tantalizingly out of reach.

During the Toronto International Film Festival, MTV News tracked down “Sin City” actor Clive Owen, to find out whether he thinks the project is ever going to happen—or if Frank Miller and Robert Rodriguez’ follow-up could indeed be just over the horizon.

“I’m hearing it might be next year. I heard that from a very good source… recently.” – Owen told MTV News. However, Owen wouldn’t reveal where he heard the news, and he didn’t let fans’ hopes get too carried away. According to the actor, he hasn’t read a script for the film yet.
