Unsorted for export
David Cronenberg wanted to shoot the sequel "Vice for Export" a long time ago, but the circumstances were not in his favor, and the audience did not see the continuation of the crime thriller. At the beginning of last year, information appeared that the second part, called Body Cross, is still alive, and not gathering dust on the Focus Features shelf. And only now the Collider portal has confirmed that the studio still intends to make a film.However, fans of "Vice for Export" will be disappointed: since the idea with a sequel failed, they decided to turn the project into an independent film. Neither Viggo Mortensen nor Vincent Cassel will be involved in the film. The director's chair will be taken by William Oldroyd, who received two BAFTA nominations for his debut drama Lady Macbeth. The script for the project was written by Stephen Knight ("Peaky Blinders") a few years ago. The painting is said to be a mafia story of two-brother immigrants living in London. The plot will revolve around a USA agent who has become a loyal assistant for the London mafia. And then one day he gets the task to kill one of his compatriots ... The source writes that Mortensen's hero was either completely removed from the script, or they simply changed the name Nikolai to Grigory.  In 2014, Stephen Knight admitted that his script was much better than what viewers saw in Vice for Export. Knight's confidence inspires confidence, given how many years the project has lain on the shelf, and it is produced by the Briton Paul Webster, whose track record includes the dramas Pride and Prejudice and Atonement in addition to "Vice for Export".
