Rumors are flying that the rights to Sin City 2 are being shopped around Hollywood, according to Hollywood Reporter.  The Weinstein Company/Dimension had the rights, and has been saying recently that they still hope to make the film (see “Producer Eager for Sin City 2”). 

After the success of the first Sin City picture, all concerned were hot to move a sequel forward, but Sin City creator Frank Miller has been working on other projects, and development stalled.  Whether the rights move or not, the fact that there’s at least some action on the film may indicate that the sequel may get made sooner rather than later, a positive prospect for sales of the underlying graphic novel series.
