Teaser Posters for Machete Kills and Sin City: A Dame to Kill For

Teaser posters have been released for two upcoming sequels from Robert Rodriguez. Filming on Machete Kills begins this month, with a cast that includes Danny Trejo, Michelle Rodriguez, Mel Gibson, Sofia Vergara, Demian Bichir, Amber Heard, and Jessica Alba.

“The new film finds Machete recruited by the U.S. Government for a mission which would be impossible for any mortal man. Machete must battle his way through Mexico to take down a madman cartel leader and an eccentric billionaire arms dealer who has hatched a plan to spread war across the planet with a weapon in space. Machete takes on an army in an effort to dismantle a plan for global anarchy.”

A Sin City sequel was officially announced last month. Although details are slim, the movie will be titled Sin City: A Dame to Kill For, and will follow the limited comic book series of the same name.
