With it being nearly a decade since the first film, anticipation is definitely a difficult thing when it comes to Sin City 2, though the trailer worked quite well for me since I really want more of the same in terms of style and direction, as that’s what made the first one work so well. With the film set for an August 22nd, 2014 release date, the slow but steady marketing push is underway and the folks at The Playlist have proffered up three new images of the character sin the familiar stylized form.
Directed by Frank Miller and Robert Rodriguez based on the graphic novels of the same name, the film stars Joshn Brolin, Eva Green and more such as Mickey Rourke, Jessica Alba, Bruce Willis, Rosario Dawson, Jaime King, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Dennis Haysbert, Christopher Meloni, Jeremy Piven, Ray Liotta, Juno Temple, Stacy Keach, and Julia Garner.
Plot concept: Sin City: A Dame to Kill For weaves together two of Frank Miller’s classic stories with new tales in which the town’s most hard boiled citizens cross paths with some of its more repulsive inhabitants. In Sin City: A Dame to Kill For, Dwight is hunted down by the only woman he ever loved, Ava Lord, and then watches his life go straight to hell. Chronologically, this story takes place prior to “The Big Fat Kill” (featured in the film Frank Miller’s Sin City) and explains how Dwight came to have a dramatically different face.
