Crank 2 official Oct. 29, 2007
Source: Variety   by: Dave Davis

The loopy action flick CRANK had so much insane velocity it practically made it into orbit. And now filmmakers Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor are gonna try to knock it out of the solar system with a sequel.

Yep, it's official: CRANK 2: HIGH VOLTAGE is in the works. Jason Statham will again play hyper hitman Chev Chelios (somehow) in the follow-up. And now what could they possibly have planned for the resilient high-speed hired gun? The only info given so far (aside from the fact that it'll attempt to push things even further over-the-top, inconceivable though that may seem) is that Chev "faces a Chinese mobster who has stolen his nearly indestructible heart and replaced it with a battery-powered ticker that requires regular jolts of electricity to keep working."

Sure, whatever -- it doesn't sound any more wonderfully ludicrous than the first one, so I'm in. Statham apparently loved the pitch so much he made sure his pre-strike schedule was clear for the project, which Neveldine/Taylor will shoot right after their tech thriller GAME with Gerard Butler. No word on whether Amy Smart or Dr. Yoakam will be back for the sequel, but if Statham's character made it, anything is possible.

Extra Tidbit: Somehow, CRANK does not feature any explosions. Just millions of rounds of ammunition.

The first one was great so the new one will be cool, if unoriginal. Not sure how they will bring back Chev though as he clearly died in the original film.

I didn't really enjoy Crank that much. This sounds kind of stupid. Hopefully it will be better.

Badguys are idiots. I agree with Chitown, why give him a battery in his heart? If I were a villain I would be that "lame" kind that just shoots people in the face three or four times.

HMMM
Interesting concept, but why would the bad guy go through the trouble of replacing statham's heart with an electric one in the first place. just take it and go. And yes, i am overanalyzing this and i'm quite aware of it.

And I was hoping it would pick up right after his fall from Earth's stratosphere. After all, he did blink at the end.

Oh well, so long as there's a high-voltage, public sex scene everything should be swell.

Waitaminute, so besides surviving, well, the end of the first film (don't want to spoil the movie for the three people that haven't seen it), Statham gets his heart surgically removed and replaced by an electric one, so that instead of pumping himself full of adrenaline, he has to constantly be electrocuted? Is that what they're saying? Oh, it is? Well, okay, then. Just making sure.

And did this make anyone else think of the line, "Son, I'm afraid I have some bad news. We accidentally replaced your heart with a baked potato. You have about three seconds to live."
