The chance of Angelina Jolie's character Fox returning in "Wanted 2" is getting more and more likely. At the recent Comic-Con, "Wanted" director Timur Bekmambetov said he may have an idea how to bring back Jolie for the sequel, but at that stage, it all sounded more like a rumor than a fixed plan.

If you haven't seen "Wanted" but plan to watch it in the near future, I would advise you to stop reading, as a spoiler will follow. When talking to MTV recently, Bekmambetov said he now knows how he could bring Fox back from the dead. As you may remember, she took a bullet at the end of the first flick.

Rumors about a sequel to Timur Bekmambetov’s “Wanted” popped up months ago, but now we have some confirmation about where the project is currently heading.

In talking to MTV, screenwriter Chris Morgan said he’s gearing up to write the script for “Wanted 2.”

“Yes, I will be writing it,” Morgan said. “I’m actually leaving this conversation with you to go to a meeting with the director, Timur [Bekmambetov], and we’re talking about the story.”

Not much else is known about the follow-up at this point, except that Mark Millar, co-creator of the “Wanted” comic book series, will probably be involved with the project.

In September, Millar said in an interview that he would provide Universal with a basic idea for a story.

Considering most character died in the first film, it will be tough to put together an intriguing story, which will focus on main character Wesley Gibson (James McAvoy).

“That is the challenge here,” Morgan told MTV, “but the point is to continue the journey that Wes started in the first film.

So yeah, that’s pretty much where they are at now with the sequel. As soon as new information becomes available, we’ll let you know.

Mark Millar, co-creator of the “Wanted” comic book series, recently talked to Newsarama about the sequel to Timur Bekmambetov’s summer action hit. The first film pulled $133.7 million domestically.

“What I will be doing is providing them with a very small amount of stuff for a story, and that will be used as a basic story that they can build from,” Millar said about his involvement in the follow-up to “Wanted.”
