At the rally of filmmakers CineEurope taking place these days, representatives of the production company Luc Besson EuropaCorp , reports Indiewire , among others. They reported on the studio's creative plans for the near future, and it turned out that the sequel to the controversial but financially successful sci-fi action movie Lucy was among the projects under development.Recall that the plot of the original film revolved around thegirl, into whose blood a dangerous and incredibly powerful drug accidentally entered. This synthetic drug expanded the boundaries of her mind and provided access to all the world's knowledge and skills. Having become the owner of superhuman abilities, including telepathy and telekinesis, she had to find a way to transfer all her knowledge to the population of the Earth until a group of bandits who opened a hunt for this harsh beauty finished her off. Interestingly, last summer Luc Besson was leaning towards the impossibility of continuing this story:“I have no idea for a sequel“ Lucy ”. She cannot have a continuation. However, if I find an interesting enough idea, I can change my mind ”. Apparently, the process of finding an idea suitable for the scenario " Lucy 2 " ended successfully. It is not yet known if Scarlett Johansson and Morgan Freeman will return to their roles.  Despite many negative reviews from critics, the action-packed action " Lucy " earned about $ 459 million worldwide, so its return to the big screens is not entirely unexpected. What can not be said about the sequel to another crime studio action movie - " Colombiana ". The story of a girl obsessed with her vendetta, shamelessly resembling the plot of "Leon", could not surprise the reviewers, and did not excel at the box office, collecting only $ 69 million from viewers. However, four years later, EuropaCorp announces its intention to return to the theaters the ruthless and beautiful professional killer Catalea played by Zoe Saldana.
