    Bodhi returns for Point Break 2

    [/FONT] pointbreak.jpgThis one’s sure to put a smile on Edgar Wright’s dial.
    A sequel to the undeniably cheesy yet so-shamelessly-appealing “Point Break” (1991) is in the works.
    The writer of the original film, Peter Iliff, tells Channel News Asia that the new film will be set in Asia. He also announced he’d be directing the movie.
    “There was some worry that re-visiting the characters I wrote back in 1987 would infuriate fans of the original chapter," confessed the L.A based-writer.
    "I would like to return to Point Break because it represents my career coming full circle. The original was the first movie I ever wrote, the sequel would be my first ever directorial effort."
    Though Keanu Reeves’ character, Johnny Utah, isn’t expected to return, Patrick Swayze’s Bodhi does (so, what, he never got swept up into the waves after all?).
    RGM Films will produce the $30 million dollar movie.
    "We are extremely excited about making the sequel to a movie that was well received and highly regarded by audiences all around the world," said RGM’s chief executive Devesh Chetty.
    The new film is said to fix on ex-professional surfer who enlists in the US Navy and is recruited to track down a criminal gang based in South-East Asia.

    I thought Swayze only has a few weeks to live. So I guess we are in for another weekend at Bernies.

    He looks like Nick Nolte from that angle.

    I often confuse him for Nolte - eg in Under Siege.
