The Informer 2: Is There a Release Date Yet?
It’s been almost two years since the release of British crime thriller “The Informer,” and fans have been eagerly awaiting the sequel. The original movie, directed by Andrea Di Stefano and starring Joel Kinnaman, Rosamund Pike, and Common, was based on Swedish bestseller “Three Seconds” by Anders Roslund and Börge Hellström.
However, despite the popularity of the first film, news about the second installment has been scarce. So, the question on everyone’s minds is, “Is there a release date for The Informer 2?”
The Silence on The Informer 2
The short answer is no, there isn’t an official release date yet. While a sequel was announced in January 2020, things have been incredibly quiet since then.
Some of the delay might be attributed to the Coronavirus pandemic, which has halted production across the movie industry, but there has been no word about it so far.
The Cast and Crew
As it stands, we do know that the director, Andrea Di Stefano, will be returning for the second movie. The cast, however, remains unclear. Joel Kinnaman may reprise his role as Pete Koslow, but nothing has been confirmed regarding Rosamund Pike and Common’s participation.
What To Expect from The Informer 2
Since there has been a lack of updates regarding the sequel, it’s challenging to say what to expect. However, if the movie follows the book’s plot as closely as the first movie, we can anticipate an intense and complex storyline.
The original storyline followed an ex-con turned informant, Koslow, who agrees to go undercover to infiltrate the drug cartel responsible for his earlier arrest. Trapped between the FBI and those he’s working for, Koslow must navigate a dangerous game to save himself and his family.
The Bottom Line
While the lack of updates and news about The Informer 2 is undoubtedly frustrating, we can’t be too quick to jump to conclusions. With the cast and crew staying mum on the subject, it remains unclear if there will ever be a sequel to The Informer.
All we can do is wait and hope that new developments emerge soon. For now, fans of the film can revisit the first installment or read up on the best-selling book series that inspired it.
