| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jul. 00  | [All I have to say about this is: how freakin' much do I love Mila Kunis?!? That 70s Show, Family Guy, and now this!!] Lions Gate takes stab at ``American Psycho II'' By Dana Harris HOLLYWOOD (Variety) - Independent studio Lions Gate Prods. has given the greenlight to ''American Psycho II,'' a sequel to the controversial thriller ``American Psycho'' that starred Christian Bale. Actress Mila Kunis, best known for her role in the Fox television series ``That '70s Show,'' will star in the film, which will be directed by Morgan J. Freeman (ensemble comedy ''Desert Blue''). Production on ``American Psycho II,'' which is budgeted at about $10 million, is slated to begin in mid-May in Toronto. Unlike the original, in which the titular psychotic was Wall Street yuppie Patrick Bateman (Bale), the sequel will feature a young co-ed (Kunis) as the rampaging killer. The picture takes place on a present-day college campus, with Kunis as a sexy college freshman and deranged Bateman survivor. Having formed a darkly comedic obsession to be a certain professor's teaching assistant, Kunis' character does away with anything that gets in her way. The original ``American Psycho,'' which was directed by Mary Harron from a script adapted by Harron and Guinevere Turner from the novel by Bret Easton Ellis, earned Lions Gate Films more than $15.1 million in its U.S. theatrical release. ``'American Psycho II' is a darkly satirical script in the spirit of the original 'American Psycho,''' said Michael Paseornek, president of Lions Gate Prods. ``The title provides a lot of built-in marketing. We have an opportunity to launch young actors and we are looking to build a good ensemble cast around (Kunis).'' Paseornek said that while Lions Gate hopes to give ``American Psycho II'' a theatrical release, there would be no guarantee until the completed film was screened. However, Paseornek also added that Lions Gate could envision a number of future ``American Psycho'' sequels. ``If we make good movies, we could have a franchise here,'' Paseornek told Daily Variety. ``It's up to us not to blow it.'' ``American Psycho II'' was written by Karen Craig and Alex Sanger and will be produced by Ernie Barbarash, a co-producer of ``American Psycho.'' Sanger, who also serves as director of production for Lions Gate, will oversee the project for the indie.

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Sep. 00 | I heard about an AP2 without Bateman, actually posted it here, but didn't get the details. Thanks Dan it sounds like it can be hysterical in a good way. Kunis is hot, I'd like to see her as a psycho I just hope they don't put in a reference to Bateman being dead or arrested or something they would just ruin the fantasy.

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Sep. 00 | got it wrong tarp who Spolied the movie. I interpreted the ending as meaning everything prior to the night of mass killings was real until I read the book when I decided everything was real so the killings were real.
