I thought White Noise was a pretty decent movie. Not a classic by any stretch of the imagination, but it was nice to see Michael Keaton is that kind of a role. It didn’t make a ton of money (about $91 million worldwide) but it was more than enough to make a profit. And where there’s profit… there are usually sequels.
News is bouncing around the internet today about White Noise 2 being given the green light. The good folks over at Cinema Confidential give us the following little synopsis of the project:
A man’s family is murdered and he is brought back from the brink of death. The man realizes he has changed and can now identify those among the living who are about to die. When he tries to save people from their fate, he discovers there is a price to paid for interfering with the natural order of life and death.
Not horribly original… but sounds interesting. No word on if Keaton will make an appearance or not.
michael keaton died in the first one
I saw this film in the cinema because I missed Keaton on the big screen, I went it with no expectations and although it wasnt a brilliant film, I lived through it. I dont mind watching a sequel.
So if Keaton is back, sure, I’ll go and see it.
White Noise was a horrible movie, I laughed my ass off when that girl stood and he edge of the balcony and fell, and I wasn’t the only one. This was about as good as Dark Water…which sucked too. All I have to say about a White Noise 2 is son of a bitch, son of a fucking bitch.
I’d like to see Debbie Unger back.
She’s the only one who lived in the last one, right?
Anyway, someone needed the franchise I guess.
