Donnie Darko 2: Blasphemous!!!

Filed under: Jake Gyllenhaal > Film Flickers

donniedarko.jpg

A sequel to cult film classic Donnie Darko is in the works.

Nooooooooooo!!!!!!!

The title of the sequel is S. Darko and it starts shooting on May 18th.

Daviegh Chase will reprise her role as Donnie's younger sister. The cast for S. Darko also includes Ed Westwick (Gossip Girls' Chuck Bass!), Briana Evigan (Step Up 2) and Justin Chatwin (Dragon Ball).

The story picks up seven years after the first film (and Donnie's death) when little sister Samantha Darko and her best friend Corey are now 18 and on a roadtrip to Los Angeles when they are plagued by bizarre visions.

There's no Donnie at all in the new film (sorry Jake Gyllenhaal fans), but there will be meteorites and rabbits.

We really wish they would've left Darko alone.

What are YOUR thoughts on the sequel?

    I agree. Darko should have been left alone. It was perfect the way it was finished in the first film.

    203

    No, don't do it!!! It's going to turn into the same thing as the Final Destination sequels : (

    211

    that entire synopsis sounded horrendous. donnie died…isn't that good enough?

  12. caitma says – reply to this


    212

    DD was awesome…why does Hollywood they have to ruin enerything good in this world? And why cant anyone write their own scripts intead of haning off the coat tails of another movie. COME ON!

  13. Jermbuf14 says – reply to this


    213

    I am one of the biggest fans of Donnie Darko and the only way it will be any good is if Richard Kelly wrote and directed it, but alas, he isn't. So it will be terrible.

  14. aa says – reply to this


    214

    That's just silly. I am ignoring it. Doesn't exist.

  15. yaya says – reply to this


    215

    noooo. i saw this movie a month ago it a pretty twisted movie but i liked it. i dont think that making a sequel is a smart idea. why cant people leave the good movies alone. im sry but i dont think the second movie its going to be any good. although the actors are good but yeah making a sequel is just going to kill it.

  16. Ted says – reply to this


    216

    It will be as memorable as American Psycho 2 with the chick who does the voice of Meg Griffin.

  17. Alicia says – reply to this


    217

    Nooooooooooo! Say it isn't so. Say it's some kind of sick joke! I assume of course that Richard Kelly this little number. I should have known something like this was going to happen after watching Soutland Tales. Perez if you see him please bitch slap some sense into him on behalf of Darko fans everywhere.

  18. Very Nervous Happy Birthday says – reply to this

    220

    I think the first movie was stupid to begin with, now to make another shitty sequel? Dumb idea.

  21. Marc Olmsted says – reply to this


    221

    Fine, sounds interesting.

  22. Alicia says – reply to this


    222

    "If Kelly isnt having to do with it then that's a red flag right there. Its going to be like Interview With The Vampire v. Queen of the Damned all over again. One will be a cult classic while the other will only be watched for its lack of consistency compared to it's predecessor."

  28. ashby says – reply to this


    228

    Donnie Darko was brilliant! I don't have high hopes for the sequel but would love for it to work out cause I could use a good movie after the Sh*t i've seen this year. *ahem* one missed call!

  29. Lesley says – reply to this


    229

    You cant mess with Donnie Darko.. the movie is perfect and making a sequel will just put it in that category with all the other movies that have sequels and it doesnt deserve that!!

  30. lj says – reply to this


    230

    241

    Why must they ruin awesome movies with shitty sequels?

  42. Cybesq says – reply to this


    242

    You gotta love it when some money grubbing exploitative little dirt bag like Perez Hilton starts to point his finger at Hollywood trying to make a buck.

    Let the movie speak for itself.

  43. carly says – reply to this


    243

  60. Amber says – reply to this


    260

    I LOVED the first one but I could go either way on the sequel. I guess I will have to see it to decide. Only problem is most sequels suck and usually you can't create the SAME feeling and hit as the first. We'll See!

  61. a says – reply to this


    261

    OMG! I haven't watched the first one yet……….. BUT DID YOU JUST SPOIL THE ENDING FOR ME?!?!?! IDIOT!

  62. Brian says – reply to this


    262

    MAYBE U SHOULD MENTION THE DIRECTOR IS NOT RETURNING, INSTEAD ITS A DIRECTOR OF STRAIGHT TO DVD FILMS

  63. rebecca says – reply to this


    263

    Ok. Donnie Darko is a classic and no one can match jake's ability to be sinister and kinda crazy…BUT ed westwick is fine. i mean hot. watch the gg episode victor/victrola when chuck and blair get together in the back of his limo and you'll know what im talking about. his jaw line…omfg.

  64. Jocelyn says – reply to this


    264

    It is gonna suck baaaaalls.

  65. dominique says – reply to this


    265

    i can not believe they are doing that!! i am SO UPSET!! it's so sad to me that nobody can come up with anything original anymore, so they go and fuck up movies that are so perfect the way they are!

  66. jntypie says – reply to this


    266

    who knows? it might be good.
    But I still wish that Jake was in it.. it would make it some much more interesting.

  67. marlene says – reply to this


    267

    not getting my hopes up on this.

  68. Kate says – reply to this


    268

    First, the first movie left no room for a sequel. Second…quite honestly…I don't think the original was good enough to make another movie anyways.

  69. Kara says – reply to this


    269

    NO
    FUCK NO!
    The original was a fucking cult classic! What the hell are they thinking????

  70. kara says – reply to this


    270

    the first movie is GREAT. no, it's actually better than that. it's fucking awesome and totally mind-bending. the end of the first movie is the end of donnie's story. there should absolutely be no sequel. but i will, of course, go see it when it comes out.

  71. cj says – reply to this


    271

    omg i love Daviegh shes a good friend im so happy she got the work!

    and shake some sense into them.

    you dont mess with perfection.

  74. sam says – reply to this


    274

    well at first i had the same reaction as you did, "NOOO!!" BUT then i read two words: ed westwick. that's all i need to know.

  75. Crystal says – reply to this


    275

    that's terrible. I don't understand why they can't just leave good movies alone. it doesn't need a sequel.

  76. cameron says – reply to this


    276

    producers, stop making this film.

  77. zob says – reply to this

    typical that you fkycucking americans have something good and want so shit on it as you see it as a $$$ making machine (28 weeks later????) fucking wankers

  85. ALuLu says – reply to this


    285

    nooooooo u cant make a sequel to a movie as good as this!

  86. Arcieri Keness says – reply to this


    286

    Smh.

    I think that is a horrible idea to make a part two to that. Plus, how can you NOT have the original director. Man, that's a big SIGN that it's gonna be terrible. Since there's gonna be a part two to this film, I just hope that don't make a VANILLA SKY pt 2. now.

    [sigh]

    I don't even think I want to see it, period… horrible idea. Ugh

  87. danee says – reply to this

    Who fucks with perfection?? Leave it be!

  91. Cherry says – reply to this


    291

    Money hungry whores can't leave a good thing alone. How the hell will this compete with the original. A similar storyline will just be sad & unimaginative-totally NOT what Donnie Darko was about! I for one hope that it doesn't make it. Sorry ppl you will have to milk some other cash cow.

  92. H says – reply to this


    292

    DD is my fave move of all time…I'm sickened by this.
    I agree with you, Perez!!!!!

  93. ahhhh says – reply to this


    293

    oh hell no.
    the main reason why I saw it in the first place was because of jake gyllenhaal.
    I'm pretty sure I'll watch it though… even though it will most likely disappoint me.

  94. colleen says – reply to this


    294

    that is fucked up

  95. ahlmkim02 says – reply to this


    295

    OH NO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! if there is no Jake Gyllenhaal, it will be shit

  96. fuck that says – reply to this


    296

    No! that is fucken stupid. you can't mess with Donnie Darko. hate this idea!

  97. katie says – reply to this


    297

    this is seriously the most depressing news. how the heck can someone, who isn't even the director of the original, top such a unique, beautiful movie as donnie darko? THIS TRULY IS BLASPHEMOUS PEREZ!

  98. Bleh says – reply to this


    298

    FUCK THAT SHIT. the first one was good don't ruin it.

  99. Kelly says – reply to this


    299

    I guess it depends on who's directing it and who wrote it. It would have to be as good as or better than the original, which is highly doubtful, so I think they should skip it.

  100. heidi says – reply to this


    300

    that is very disappointing. i wish they weren't making it…
