Overview
- Davis told Deadline on Wednesday that she and Samuel L. Jackson have long wanted to revisit the 1996 action thriller.
- She confirmed the movie’s ending was changed during production to preserve the option of continuing the story rather than to close it off.
- Samuel L. Jackson has previously called The Long Kiss Goodnight one of his favorite roles, a view Davis echoed in her interview.
- No formal sequel has been announced and Davis is moving ahead with a new action film, The Kellys, which is set to be directed by Brad Peyton and co-stars Arnold Schwarzenegger and Liam Hemsworth.
- Davis made the remarks while opening the 12th Bentonville Film Festival and fresh from Cannes festival appearances, a sequence that highlights both her ongoing festival leadership and renewed career momentum.
