Boyle hoping for 'Trainspotting' sequel

Danny Boyle has confirmed he still hopes to reunite the cast of Trainspotting for a sequel, but he is waiting for them to age enough first.

The Oscar-winning director’s 1996 cult hit featured a group of heroin addicts played by Ewan McGregor, Ewan Bremner, Jonny Lee Miller, Robert Carlyle, Kevin McKidd and Kelly McDonald.

Boyle said he would like to make a follow-up film when the cast have reached “mid-life crisis” point.

He told movie blog Cinematical: “It will happen, I think. I mean, we’ll approach them all again about it, but it will depend on what place they’re all at.

“We have a very strong idea that it would be a wonderful thing to re-approach, to do again, when they have aged clearly into a mid-life kind of crisis, basically.”
