Peter Berg just let slip that, "everybody's going to come back for a sequel (to Hancock)", at TIFF. This is exciting news, and I saw the mountain of potential that was Hancock and liked it. Sure it had some short comings, but overrall it was a good time at the theatre and I like Berg as a director.
Berg went on to give away some plot details. Theron and Smith are coming back as immortal beings who weaken one another when in their presence. Nevertheless, they must pair up to destroy a third "entity". The movie will also explore their 3,000 year old home world which was only hinted at in the first film. Bateman will play his lovable everyman PR executive. No release date is set, and the script is still in the writing stage.
