So the new film from NightWatch / DayWatch director Timur Bekmambetov is due out in Russian just before Christmas titled ‘Ирония Судьбы: Продолжение (трейлер)’, The films english title is ‘A Irony of Fate 2’ and is apparently a sequel to a 1975 Russian film , whilst according to a russian website the film producers expect the sequel to bring them around $ 45-50 million, which would break all Russian box office records, somehow I think they’re over predicating the films success just because of the director attached, as no film has broke the $15million mark since the underated Wolfhound in January this year. But the film does star Daywatch / Nightwatch lead ‘Konstantin Khabensky’, it may worth keeping track of, although the trailer looks pretty uninspiriing.

    When did he find time to direct this thing? Isn’t he busy with that awful-looking American comic adaptation?

    I was just about to say something like that - this looks roughly eight million times better than the bastardization of WANTED.  Nice to see Bekmambetov toning his style down a bit, it hints at a versatility I hadn’t counted on.  I actually think this looks promising.  The Twentieth Century Fox logo at the end of the trailer means there’s at least a chance we’ll see this here at some point.  Not a huge chance, and I doubt they’d take it theatrical unless it’s HUGE in Russia, but straight-to-DVD for Xmas ‘08 seems theoretically possible.

    The title again is not correct. It is Ирония Судьбы: Продолжение which means Irony of Fate: Continuation (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0987918/), and it is a continuation of the most famous Soviet New Year melodrama Irony of Fate, 1975 (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0073179/).

    ‘Трейлер’ in Cyrillic is ‘trailer’ in Latin.
