10 Sequels Teased In Post-Credits Scenes (That Never Actually Happened)
10. The Pain Never Ends - Max Payne
If there was ever a video game franchise that lent itself most to being adapted into a film, it's Max Payne, with its bleak tone and focuses towards a cinematic presentation. His family were murdered and he is hell-bent on revenge, which is like basic film setup 101.
Coming in 2008, the same year Mark Wahlberg starred in The Happening, Max Payne was released and Marky Mark's second flop of the year. After loosely following the plot of Remedy Entertainment's 2001 hit, the ending is tweaked from the source material as Max shoots his way through an army of guards to confront the big bad.
So instead of Max destroying a helicopter and killing Nicole Horne, he shoots his dad's former partner B.B - with Max being arrest by SWAT shortly after.
The post-credit scene shows Max arriving at a bar sometime in the future with minimal dialogue as he sits down for a drink with Russian assassin Mona Sax (Mila Kunis). She hands him a newspaper with a photograph of Horne on the front, hinting that there is some unfinished business to be had. As we now know, this is left open-ended, so maybe Ted is actually the spiritual successor showing Max and Mona's life after violence?
