Why Mel Gibson will not reprise his role in Machete Kills in Space?


Why Mel Gibson Will not Reprise His Role as Luther Voz? Why Leonardo Di Caprio? sounds fantastic? did you saw the preview of the trailer in the first movie? it was said Leonardo Di Caprio as Man Of Iron mask or something i heard! why mel gibson will not reprise his role?

reply

If you actually paid attention to the trailer in the beginning, it said "Actor Subject To Change."

Two reasons for handling the teaser trailer that way:

1) If they announced that Mel was appearing in the sequel, that would spoil the upcoming film (Voz lives). The trailer also kept the fate of Michelle Rodriguez's second eye a surprise.

2) R.R. wanted to make a "Man in the Iron Mask" joke.

If the 3rd installment is ever made, Mel won't appear in it. That was part of the reason for the mask, so that if/when the sequel is made they can get another actor in the mask and not have to pay Mel Gibson's high salary--what would be the point if you're not seeing his face?

I think he will appear in it if the script's right


I think so too. I think Mel will probably return, I think Leo could do a funny cameo like Cruise in Austin Powers.

Mel might still appear if De Caprio is too busy!

I thought the same thing. I'd probably be too expensive to get him back.
