Another Before Sunrise Sequel Shooting This Summer

Richard Linklater has been tight-lipped about the possibility of there being a third installment in his Julie Delpy-and-Ethan Hawke-walking-around-a-city-and-talking series of films that so far include 1995?s Before Sunrise and 2004?s Before Sunset. But, unfortunately for him, one of his stars and collaborators can?t stop spilling the beans everywhere he goes, that star being Ethan Hawke.

The last time Hawke was talking about the potential project, he remarked, ?I don?t know what we?re going to do but I know the three of us have been talking a lot in the last six months. All three of us have been having similar feelings that we?re ready to revisit those characters. There?s nine years between the first two movies and, if we made the film next summer, it would be nine years again, so we?ve really started thinking that would be a good thing to do. We?re going to try write it this year.?

Well, it seems like the writing went well, because in an interview with IndieWire that was supposed to be about his upcoming project The Woman in the Fifth, talk turned to the new Before Whatever project again, and Hawke confirmed that the third film was indeed on its way. Of his future collaborations with Linklater (which also include a still-untitled series of short films) Hawke said, ?we?re also doing a follow-up to Before Sunrise?and Before Sunset, so that will be fun. We?re going to shoot that this summer.?

When the interviewer asked him which city they would be walking around in this time, Hawke seemed to finally remember that he wasn?t supposed to be talking. He replied, ?I?ve gotten into trouble, so I?m sworn to secrecy. The biggest change between this one and the last one is the Internet. The first time we did it, we didn?t have any pressure; nobody gave a shit.?

The idea that nobody gave a shit is certainly debatable. It seems to me that there are plenty of fans of these films out there that have been following them since the very beginning. So, what do you say fans? What city are we hoping will serve as the setting for the third film? After visiting Vienna and Paris, it?s going to have to somewhere big and beautiful. Maybe Newark?
