‘Layer Cake 2’ is Currently in Development but will Star Jason Statham

Date:

Layer Cake 2 is in the works and will star Jason Statham instead of Daniel Craig in the sequel.

It has been nine years since Daniel Craig played the unnamed protagonist in Layer Cake and 13 years since author J.J. Connolly’s debut was first published, which means that we have been long overdue for a sequel to answer our most pressing question.

Layer Cake 2

According to Deadline, Jason Statham and his producing partner, Steve Chasman, have acquired the rights to Connolly’s follow-up novel, Viva la Madness, through their company, SJ Pictures, and that basically means that Jason Statham, not Daniel Craig, will play the unnamed retiree in the sequel, as he will be “looking for a beach to land on in retirement, but instead he gets involved with trans-Atlantic drug deals, money laundering, high-tech electronic fraud, London lowlifes and Venezuelan drug cartels.”

It has not been announced who will direct but, it looks like an exciting and promising picture.
