A Sequel to Karen Gillan's GUNPOWDER MILKSHAKE Is Already in Development
Karen Gillan’s Netflix action film Gunpowder Milkshake still has yet to be released, but StudioCanal recently announced that they’re already developing a sequel. I still have yet to see the movie, but it looks like a lot of fun, and it’s not hard to see the franchise potential.
The story for the first film takes place over the course of one night and follows three generations of women who “fight back against those who could take everything from them in the mother of all action movies.”
The movie has a great cast that includes Karen Gillan, Lena Headey, Angela Bassett, Michelle Yeoh, Chloe Coleman, Carla Gugino, and Paul Giamatti. I imagine many of them will show up for the sequel. As of right now there is no information on the story for the sequel.
Gunpowder Milkshake was directed by Navot Papushado from a script he wrote with Ehud Lavski. Here’s the full synopsis for the upcoming first film.
Sam (Karen Gillan) was only 12 years old when her mother Scarlet (Lena Headey), an elite assassin, was forced to abandon her. Sam was raised by The Firm, the ruthless crime syndicate her mother worked for. Now, 15 years later, Sam has followed in her mother’s footsteps and grown into a fierce hit-woman. She uses her “talents” to clean up The Firm’s most dangerous messes. She’s as efficient as she is loyal.
But when a high-risk job goes wrong, Sam must choose between serving The Firm and protecting the life of an innocent 8-year-old girl – Emily (Chloe Coleman). With a target on her back, Sam has only one chance to survive: Reunite with her mother and her lethal associates: The Librarians (Angela Bassett, Michelle Yeoh and Carla Gugino). These three generations of women must now learn to trust each other, stand up to The Firm and their army of henchmen, and raise hell against those who could take everything from them.
The movie will be released on Netflix on July 14th.
