Even though the ex-Federale grindhouse flick ‘Machete’ only hit UK theatres last Friday talk has already arisen for it’s successor. ‘Machete 2’ has, according to it’s title star Danny Trejo, already been penned by writer/director Robert Rodriguez and is ready to roll once everything falls in to place. “I asked [co-director Robert Rodriguez] when he was going to write it and he says it’s written, so we can get started pretty quick”” says Trejo. Alongside Trejo, ‘Machete’ stars Robert De Niro, Jessica Alba (below), Steven Seagal, Michelle Rodriguez (‘Resident Evil’), Jeff Fahey (‘Lost’), Cheech Marin, Don Johnson, Lindsay Lohan and the hottie twins Electra Avellan and Elise Avellan as sexy nurses!
“Three years ago in Mexico, determined Federale Machete is betrayed and set-up by his boss, resulting in his wife and child being murdered by drug kingpin Torrez. Now, in Texas, Machete resurfaces when hired to assassinate Senator McLaughlin, an extreme advocate against illegal immigration. Once again betrayed and set-up, Machete plots his revenge against the men who’ve wronged him with the help of resistance fighter Luz, ICE Agent Sartana, and the shotgun-toting Padre.”
