Marsden also said he was excited to do a sequel because “the formula just worked” in the first movie.
“I think maybe for a year or two, there were conversationsabout what [a second movie] would look likeand what the story would be. But for some reason, it just didn’t happen,” he said. “I don’t know really why. And I was told over the years that they were trying to get it made and trying to get the script written. And finally they got it together and I was happy to jump back into the crazy suits and swing the sword again.”
