More information is coming out about the highly-anticipated third "Sicario" movie.
The gritty film franchise created by Taylor Sheridan is one of the best productions you can find in cinema over the past fifteen years, especially the original in 2015.
It was recently confirmed that a third film is happening, but there were competing reports about whether Sheridan would be leading the way with his writing again.

It turns out the answer, unfortunately, is no. Steven Knight will write the script.
Brolin, who plays CIA operator Matt Graver in the franchise, is returning for the third film, along with Benicio Del Toro and Emily Blunt .
Blunt did not appear in the sequel, but played a major role in the original film.
Brolin recently spoke with ScreenRant about the upcoming third picture, and touched on the status of the script and writing.

The popular actor told the outlet that the progress for the third movie is "in the notes process" and the people involved are "still working on it."
The lead of the "Sicario" franchise also spoke about returning to work with Del Toro and Blunt, and he couldn't sound more excited.
"We adore each other, and we've all worked together before. Benicio and I, this will be our sixth film together. It's fantastic [to work with Emily again]. I just sent her a little voice memo yesterday, and I just adore her, I adore her. I think the work right now has reached a level that's just untouchable," Brolin told ScreenRant.
There is no release date for the third "Sicario" film, but you can bet it's going to be a significant amount of time before it hits theaters. Have a fun theory about what the plot might be? Let me know atDavid. Hookstead@outkick. com .
