John Carpenter Says Snake Plissken Deserves “a Third or Maybe Even Fourth Story”

Kurt Russell‘s one-eyed badass Snake Plissken is one of the most iconic characters in film history.

He saved the President of the United States in John Carpenter‘s thrilling sci-fi actioneer Escape from New York (1981) and then the POTUS’s daughter in the 1996 sequel Escape from L.A.

The dystopian anti-hero is a fan favorite that’s been celebrated in pop culture from toys to tributes/spoofs in many movies and television shows. Yet, Snake hasn’t been called to action since the 90s.

Even though it appears Snake’s retired, John Carpenter teases a possible return, albeit an unlikely one.

“He’s a character that Kurt is passionately fond of. He convinced me to do the sequel,” the director told Total Film magazine in an interview focused on Halloween Kills.

“There’s probably a third or maybe even fourth story about Snake. I don’t know if we’ll ever make it, but I think that he deserves it.”

The odds are against a second canonized Escape from New York sequel, but the long-gestured remake should eventually find its footing.  The last we heard, Leigh Whannell had been writing the remake for Fox, which would eventually be purchased by Disney. Who knows if this project is still in the cards, but if it is, it sure would be nice to see Russell reprise his role, even if to pass the torch to somebody new (a sibling?).

What say you?

Given that Netflix really is the master of their own data, how many times a viewer streams The Ridiculous 6, or what films don't get watched all the way straight through, or how many times someone watches an episode of Bill Nye Saves the World, it was easy for them to come up with the list based on just one percentage: 70 percent.
