Grillo is describing the film as ‘The Raid’ meets ‘War Of The Worlds’. So I guess we better get ready for some crazy Silat alien invasion ass-kickin’!

The long awaited U.S. starring debut of Indonesia’s martial arts duo from ‘The Raid’, IKO UWAIS & YAYAN RUHIAN, will finally happen in the Sci-Fi sequel BEYOND SKYLINE!
Wait…WHAT??!! The sequel to 2010’s mediocre alien invasion flick SKYLINE??! Yup. That ONE. The one major complaint from the few people who have actually seen the film was that it ended exactly when it started to get interesting. It ended when the ACTION, the alien ASS-KICKING, was about to START!!! Moviegoers like myself left the theater very angry and felt totally ripped off.
What is crazy is that this sequel is taking the ‘300: Rise Of An Empire’ approach by having it take place DURING the event of the original. That means we STILL won’t be able to see what happened AFTER the ending of the first one!
Anyhow, hopefully the filmmakers will redeem themselves with this semi-sequel especially with Uwais and ‘Mad Dog’ on board alongside FRANK GRILLO (Captain America: The Winter Soldier) to spearhead the action. This trio will also be working together on director PATRICK HUGHES’ upcoming U.S. remake of ‘The Raid’ with Uwais and Ruhian serving as action choreographers.
‘Beyond Skyline’ will be directed by LIAM O’DONNELL, who did special effects work on ‘Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem’ and ‘Iron Man 2’. He also co-wrote the screenplay with JOSHUA CORDES. The duo wrote the screenplay for the first film as well.
Stay tuned for more info!
