Overview
- This week Josh Brolin told ScreenRant that Sicario 3 “is happening” and that production and filming are expected to begin soon.
- Brolin is set to return as CIA officer Matt Graver, anchoring the new film with a central character from the first two entries.
- The third Sicario has been in development since 2018 and suffered repeated delays because scripts were rewritten and potential directors came and went.
- Taylor Sheridan’s level of involvement remains unclear because his television commitments have grown and no director has been officially attached after earlier reports that Christopher McQuarrie left the project.
- Producers must lock a writer and director and finalize the script before filming can start, and the film faces pressure to meet the creative expectations set by the 2015 original and the 2018 sequel.
