R-Rod Talks Sin City 2 And Willis Returns!!

Making the rounds at the Sundance Film Festival, director Robert Rodriguez has confirmed to MTV News that Bruce Willis is set to appear in "Sin City: A Dame to Kill For"--reprising his role of Hartigan from the first "Sin City" film!!!

Rodriguez says that one of the introduction stories is the only one that's complete. The main three segments are being shot piecemeal as the actors become available and all three still have more footage that needs to be shot.

We already know that  the characters of Nancy Callahan (Jessica Alba) and Marv (Mickey Rourke) will indeed return, Nancy's mini-story will act as a bridge for both the other stories in this film as well as those in the first film-Rosario Dawson is back as well. The stories told in the sequel take place before and after the events in the first film.

Jaime King, who played Goldie and Wendy in Sin City, is officially set to reprise her role as Wendy. She will be joined by Jamie Chung, who will be taking over the role of deadly little Miho, previously played by Devon Aoki. While Clive Owen stated last year that he had yet to hear about a return, the trade says he is expected to come back. However, since his character undergoes a radical face change, Josh Brolin is said to be set to play Dwight Dennis Haysbert will play Manute in the film The role was previously played by Michael Clarke Duncan, who unfortunately passed away last September. Joseph Gordon-Levitt is poised to play a smooth talking gambler named Johnny, a role which was originally offered to Johnny Depp. Christopher Meloni plays a brutish cop. Ray Liotta, Juno Temple and Jeremy Piven also star.

Rodriguez adds JGL hasn't shot his scenes yet. In that story, 'The Long Bad Night,' he plays a cocky gambler who comes to town to try and beat the town's biggest villain at his own game and things don't go well.

Temple and Liotta shot together and have already finished their scenes.  Piven's scenes were also just shot, and the actress who will play the 'Dame to Kill For' will be cast within the next few weeks.

Finally, he confirms that they are shooting the film in 3D using the latest ALEXA Cameras.
