Original WICKER MAN Team Developing sequel called THE WICKER TREE
The creative team that brought us the original insane film The Wicker Man is developing a sequel to the cult movie called The Wicker Tree. This is in no way connected to the crappy forgettable remake that was done with Nicolas Cage.
The remake will be directed by the original director Robin Hardy, and it will star the great Christopher Lee! It also stars Joan Collins, Graham McTavish, Paul Wesley, Susie Amy, Morgan James, and Natalie Parnes.
Young Christians Beth and Steve, a gospel singer and her cowboy boyfriend, leave Texas to preach door-to-door in Scotland. When, after initial abuse, they are welcomed with joy and elation to Tressock, the border fiefdom of Sir Lachlan Morrison, they assume their hosts simply want to hear more about Jesus. How innocent and wrong they are.
The original Wicker Man was a pretty jacked up movie, and I loved it! I can't wait to see what they do for the sequel. Here is a little teaser trailer that's been released.
