Gerard Butler's surprisingly entertaining Den Of Thieves is already getting a sequel
Den Of Thieves, last month’s heist film from first-time director Christian Gudegast, is exactly the sort of movie that seems destined to be forgotten. It has a fairly generic name, it stars Gerard Butler, it’s derivative of better heist movies, and yet its surprisingly entertaining performances and clever plot have helped make it into a surprise hit. In fact, Deadline is reporting that STX and Diamond Film Productions have already given the green light to Den Of Thieves 2, with Gudegast returning to direct and writing the script “from an original idea.” 50 Cent will also return to produce alongside Butler.
