Sin City: A Dame To Kill For, the follow up to the well-remembered 2005 adaptation of Frank Miller's pulp noir comic book, has added three more actors to the cast, according to
The Playlist. Ray Liotta (Killing Them Softly), Juno Temple (The Dark Knight Rises), and Jeremy Piven (Entourage) have all signed on to star in Robert Rodriguez's sequel, though it's not yet known what roles they have taken. Production has already begun at Rodriguez's Troublemaker Studios and the film is set for release on October 4th. A Dame To Kill For will follow Dwight McCarthy, (portrayed in the original by Clive Owen... but in this prequel story by Josh Brolin), hunted down by the only woman he has ever loved, Ava Lord. Chronologically, the story takes place prior to The Big Fat Kill and explains how Dwight came to have a different face and subsequently can be portrayed by a different actor. Though just because Owen isn't back, doesn't mean there won't be plenty of familiar faces. Jessica Alba is once again back as part of the star-studded ensemble, reprising her role as Nancy Callahan and Mickey Rourke returns as Marv. Michael Madsen has also confirmed his involvement along with a number of other cast members; Rosario Dawson (as Gail), Jamie Chung (as Miho), Jaime King (Goldie, Wendy). Dennis Haysbert takes on the role of Manute, replacing the late actor Michael Clarke Duncan. However there's no Bruce Willis or Elijah Wood, as their characters Det. John Hartigan and Kevin, respectively, were killed off in the first film. Joseph Gordon-Levitt joins the cast as Johnny and Christopher Meloni plays a as yet named police officer. The pivotal role of the titular "Dame To Kill For" remains uncast. Much like the first film, A Dame To Kill For will be broken up into different chapters; A Dame to Kill For, Just Another Saturday Night and The Long Bad Night, set after Hartigan's suicide.
