Heat 2 Slowly Coming Together at Amazon MGM - IGN The Fix: Entertainment

In today's Daily Fix:The sequel to Michael Mann's 1995 crime epic, Heat, is slowly coming together at Amazon MGM after the company bought the rights from Warner Bros. Mann already wrote Heat 2 in novel form back in 2022, with writer Meg Gardiner, so the plan is to adapt the book into movie form. Heat famously brought together Al Pacino and Robert DeNiro in a movie where they would finally share scenes, after the two already became Hollywood legends throughout the 1970s and 80s. Rumor has it that Leonardo DiCaprio is circling the role played by Val Kilmer in the original movie. In other news, the Hulu-exclusive Predator prequel, Prey, might finally get a theatrical release. AMC Theaters may be holding double-feature screenings this November, pairing it with the upcoming sequel, Predator: Badlands. And finally, journey to The Isle of Berk at Universal Epic Universe, and its brand-new ride - Hiccup’s Wing Gliders.Presented by Universal Orlando Resort and its new theme park, Universal Epic Universe.
