LETHAL WEAPON 5 IS STILL A POSSIBILITY
August 7th 2007 02:28
You probably know that Warner Bros Pictures have been trying to bring the fifth instalment in the Lethal Weapon series for a while now, but apparently Mel Gibson is simply not interested. But, now that Bruce Willis has returned for one more Die Hard film, Sylvester Stallone returned for one more Rocky and Rambo and Harrison Ford for one more Indiana Jones, film execs are back in talks with Gibson to convince him to reprise his role of Martin Riggs.
Speaking to Moviehole, a Warner Bros. insider revealed that "there's more 'Lethal' talk. Apparently the whole trend of resurrecting old action heroes, like John McClane and John Rambo has spurred them on. Twelve months after Gibson turned down the offer to do a fifth one, they're trying again.
Director Richard Donner also expressed interest in the project quite recently, having said: "It's up to Mel. If he says 'yes' then there's another Lethal Weapon. I have a great story, I'd love to do it and put Lethal Weapon to bed."
So it seems it’s all down to Mel, it seems everyone else is keen. Maybe he will want to keep up with the series reprisal trend that's happening at the moment.

Neither of them can possibly feel it's a realistic prospect...... Isn't Danny Glover walking with a stick yet?
