Jessica 'va-va-vroom'Biel won't be back - she's still recovering from my Bucks - but the producers of the forthcoming "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" prequel say some familiar faces from the recent redo will most definitely be reprising their roles.
“We haven’t talked to anybody, but I think the hope is to try to bring a bunch of people back. It would be nice", Excecutive Producer Andrew Form tells
Now Playing Magazine.
Likely to return, says Form, is R.Lee Ermey, who played the SOB sherrif.
Not being able to have Ermey return for a sequel is one reason they're jetting the story back in time - not forward. “I hate saying this, but we knew we couldn’t do a sequel,” says Form. “We cut [Leatherface’s] arm off. We killed Lee Ermey, who is one of the favorite characters in the movie [as the evil sheriff]. We wanted to bring some people back and we also thought that a lot of people who saw the movie always wondered why [Leatherface] used a chainsaw, and no one really explained it. He just does it. And we kind of tried to explain a little bit in our version why he wears a mask, but we’re going to, I think, really show you how the mask originated and stuff like that [in the next film].”
“Hopefully Halloween next year it will be released—that’s our date. We’re going to go backwards, obviously, a couple of years, trying to answer [questions about the character]. That one’s happening fast. Faster than I thought.”
One rumour floating about says the storyline will have a group of young soldiers meeting up with Capt.Chainsaw.
