Brilliant news
Twin Town director
Kevin Allen has revealed that he is working on a sequel to the 1997 Brit-flick right at this very moment.
The news will please super-fans of the film, starring
Rhys Ifans , who have wanted a follow-up to the ninties cult hit for a long time.
Allen, who is the brother of actor Keith Allen - who appeared in the first film - was at the first ever Lord Mayor's Summer Honour's Ball in Swansea, reported the
South Wales Evening Post , where he was being honoured for his services to film.
The sequel would be a comedy too, but with a political spin, centering on the legalisation of cannabis. Allen also revealed that it would be set around the
Llanelli area.
He added: "It will be a very political film. It's a comedy, but it's based on the miscarriage of justice so it's basically a political film," he said.
"The zeitgeist of homegrown cannabis is now the frame in which I'm setting the new one. The debate of legalising cannabis will be the main part of the film. It's happening in America and I'm resetting it more Llanelli way."
