I was watching Jay Leno last night and Michael Douglas was the guest. He started talking about Wall Street 2 and how excited he was to be working on it. I couldn’t believe what I heard. This is a joke right? Leno is just playing along, wait for it… Well the punchline never came. This movie might really happen.

Yes folks Michael Douglas will return as Gordon Gekko and Shia LaBeouf is going to play a young broker in today’s roller coaster economy trying to learn the ropes. This is very good timing for a stock broker film in today’s world where you never know if companies are cooking the books or going to go from 100 points to 1 in a week.

I think both of those actors will do a fine job and it is supposed to be directed by Oliver Stone. Maybe Charlie Sheen could have a cameo and give the young kid (Lebeouf) some advice.

The film has not started shooting yet so the cast and crew haven’t been picked besides Douglas, LaBeouf and Stone. There are many different plot possibilites with this one, let’s hope they pick a good one.
