The Sicario film series has been defined by the creative talents of directors like Denis Villeneuve (known for \u201cDune: Part Two\u201d), Taylor Sheridan, who\u2019s been a pivotal figure in the Yellowstone universe, and Stefano Sollima, responsible for \u201cWithout Remorse.\u201d Both entries, especially the first, received widespread acclaim from critics worldwide. As the franchise gears up for Sicario 3, it appears the production is set to go even bigger, judging by the names associated with it.<\/p>\n
In an interview, producers Molly Smith and Trent Luckinbill, while promoting their new movie \u201cReptile,\u201d discussed the future of the Sicario franchise. They emphasized that it\u2019s still early to determine who will take the directorial reins. While the script is nearly finalized, the plot remains a closely guarded secret, with the identity of the scriptwriter undisclosed. However, in terms of those involved in some capacity with the sequel, it\u2019s evident that Sicario 3 is attracting some of the best talent. This includes Christopher McQuarrie, renowned for his work on Mission: Impossible, as Smith remarked:<\/p>\n
\u201cBut we don\u2019t know who\u2019s going to direct yet. It\u2019s all gonna be about timing. We\u2019ve got obviously a wealth of great partners on it, everybody from Taylor Sheridan to Chris McQuarrie as a partner on it, but it\u2019ll all be about the timing and what aligns with everyone\u2019s schedule.\u201d<\/p>\n
While Christopher McQuarrie hasn\u2019t been previously linked to the Sicario series, his commitments to the next Mission: Impossible installment might pose a scheduling challenge. Nevertheless, if the production is willing to accommodate, he could be an exceptional choice for both writing and directing the third Sicario film.<\/p>\n
Regarding Taylor Sheridan\u2019s involvement in \u2018Sicario 3,\u2019 the producers acknowledged his remarkable journey since the release of the first Sicario in 2015. The Academy Award nominee has now also established himself as a accomplished director. However, the main hurdle is his packed schedule due to his involvement in the expansive Yellowstone universe, which includes several spin-offs and an upcoming series featuring Matthew McConaughey.<\/p>\n
Luckinbill pointed out that although Sheridan is deeply connected to the Sicario franchise, his current commitments might pose a challenge. Nonetheless, he assured that Sheridan remains closely tied to the project and will offer valuable input. In an ideal scenario, he might even be involved in the writing process:<\/p>\n
\u201cHe is so busy, and he stays close to it, and will obviously have input, too. Then it\u2019s just a question of when we get schedules lined up and all of that starting to have real conversations to see who\u2019s available and who wants to do it. So certainly, I think everybody that\u2019s ever been involved with this has stayed really close and has stayed fans of it. So, we\u2019ll just push forward and see what lines up and who lines up in our window.\u201d<\/p>\n
Currently, we\u2019re in a waiting game until the time is right to unveil who will be at the helm of Sicario 3. With the script nearing completion, the search for a director is likely to be one of the next priorities. As previously reported, Emily Blunt, Josh Brolin, and Benicio Del Toro are all eager to reprise their roles in the sequel. Stay tuned with us for the latest updates on Sicario 3 as soon as they\u2019re announced.
