The news that a Heat 2 was in the works delighted fans of Michael Mann’s original film. But then came the important question: What would a story for Heat 2 look like? Luckily, there’s a book for that!
The novel, written by Mann and Meg Gardiner, is both a prequel and a sequel to the original film. Now though, the new film is starting to feel a lot more real with some pretty exciting casting. We don’t yet know how the novel will play into the film but we do know that both Leonardo DiCaprio and, reportedly, Christian Bale will join the Mann picture.
