The director is still keen to make the follow-up to his 1995 crime classic.
The Big Picture Michael Mann has admitted he would love to make a follow-up to his iconic epic crime drama Heat, even if he concedes that time may be running out to do so as the director enters his 9th decade. Speaking with Variety, the director — who's currently on the promotional trail for his upcoming movie, Ferrari, which stars Adam Driver as the titular owner of the legendary motorsports company — said he would love to make the film, but if he can't, he could live with it.
“In the prequel, I don’t want them to be the same people that they are in the movie. I want them to be very different. It’s what befalls them — the conflicts, the tragedies that happen to them — that made them into the people they are. For Neil, it’s the events of the prequel that give him the gospel ‘Don’t have anything in life you can’t walk away from in 30 seconds'."
