작년말 개봉한 윌스미스 주연의 "나는 전설이다" 아시나요? 한국에선 그다지 인기를 끌지 못했지만 저는 나름 재미있게 봤었습니다. 이 영화가 속편을 계획중이라네요. 원작 작가인 리처드 매드슨의 이미 속편을 위한 계약을 완료했으며 연출을 1편을 맞았던 프랭시스 로렌이 그대로 맞는답니다. 2편을 위한 시나리오는 조디악의 제임스벤더필트가 현재 집필중이라고 합니다. 1편은 치명적 바이러스로 인한 인류의 멸망?이야기를 했다면 2편은 유전자 변이로 인해 태어난 변종 인간과의 사투를 그릴 예정이라고 합니다. I Am Legend 2 Coming Soon? By Josh Tyler: 2008-01-04 03:57:35 I Am Legend has made Warner Brothers a ridiculous amount of money, and it’s still in theaters making it. So it should come as no surprise to anyone to learn that the WB has already started lining things up for a sequel. Shock Till You Drop reports that they’ve gotten Richard Matheson, the author of the original novel on which the film is based, to sign off on the rights to a sequel. Of course that doesn’t mean it’ll happen, it may be something Warners is doing “just in case”. A case, which I hope never comes. I love I Am Legend, in fact it made it into my top 10 list for 2007, but it’s perfect as is. It’s a standalone movie, there’s no room in it for a follow up. Anything else they do with it would invariably be a thinly constructed cash-in. There’s really only two ways to make another one. Either do a prequel, which would destroy the original film by over-explaining things we didn’t need to know about, or do a sequel which follows characters we don’t know or care about. Neither option is particularly attractive. The last man on Earth should be left alone. v2(유튜브 트레일러 영상)
