They might look a little different, but all the major players from the original Fight Club are set to return. The ones that survived, anyway. The story picks up ten years after the novel, with The Narrator or Sebastian released from treatment, supposedly cured, and trading his army for a settled suburban lifestyle and a prescription for anti-depressants, from the looks of things. Who exactly is he settled down with? Why, it's Marla, the depressed nymphomaniac played by Helena Bonham Carter in the film who met Sebastian during a weird time in his life. And their suburban lifestyle involves a young son who seems to be at the centre of their failing marriage. Based on the preview, anyway. In fact, Junior looks like he didn't fall so far from the tree. The preview sees him using animal waste to harvest potassium nitrate crystals which, apparently, can be mixed with charcoal to make gunpowder. Has Sebastian left some of his old Project Mayhem literature lying around the house...?
