Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps is the sequel to the 1987 Academy Award-winning film Wall Street.  Again directed by Oliver Stone, this film will reprise the roll of Gordon Gekko played by Michael Douglass with Shia LaBeouf and Josh Brolin in lead roles. 

Synopsis:  The film is set 20 years after the first film, in June 2008.  Gordon Gekko has just been released from his prison sentence of 20 years. Despite initial attempts of Gekko trying to warn Wall Street of the soon-to-be economy down-fall and stock market crash no one believes him due to his now defaced image in the financial world. Gekko then decides to re-focus his attention on rebuilding a relationship with his now-estranged daughter Winnie. Due to the time apart (because of his prison sentence), and the fact that Gekko is blamed for his son Rudy's suicide, Winnie avoids any contact with him. During this same period in time, young Wall Street trader Jacob's (Shia LaBeouf) mentor (Frank Langella) unexpectedly dies, and Jacob suspects his hedge fund manager (Josh Brolin) of being involved in his mentor's death. Jacob, who is Winnie's fiance, wants to seek revenge, and agrees to team up with Gekko for help; in return Jacob agrees to help Gekko repair his relationship with Winnie.

Release Date:  2010

Just me:  I'm not sure what to think about this one?  I absolutely loved the original Wall Street.  And the reason why I loved it was Charlie Sheen's and Martin Sheen's performances.  And Michael Douglass played one of the best villains I had seen on the big screen so I know he can carry this sequel.  But I hate when the original star is not in the sequel.  And the sequel does have Josh Brolin, one of my favorites (Goooonnnniiieeesssss!!!).  So we'll see what happens.
