James Marsters Confirms Sequel?

According to James Marsters, a sequel to Dragonball: Evolution isn’t just speculation, but reality. From Civilized James:

In Spring and Summer, I’m on tour in Europe. Check for dates and ticket on www.jamesmarsters.com. And then we’ll start shooting the second Dragonball movie. (grins) I’ve just heard that I can actually tell that there is going to be a sequel.

Of course, things can always change in Hollywood, so don’t take this as the final word. Let’s just hope that if true, they treat the sequel with a lot more respect.

    first, i cant believe this

  2. June 6th, 2009 at 15:48 | #2

    Woohoo! I hope there is a sequel because I really think that they can make something out of this. While Evolution wasn’t just great, you have to take into consideration that they weren’t using that great of a storyline. But with this next movie, if they do the saiyan or maybe even the frieza saga, then this movie could be a blockbuster!

    this would be good news if james wong was left out of this, but if they are going to start shooting so soon, then its probably a sequel with the script he supposedly wrote, right?? thats not good

    FOX PLEASE LEAVE JAMES WONG OUT OF IT!!!! WE, DRAGONBALL FANS DESERVE BETTER THAN THAT!!! ( by the way, i used to defend wong, saying this movie could be his breakthrough, up until i saw dragonball evolution, now he doesnt deserve our support )

    I don’t know if this is true and don’t particularly care too much.

    I’m sure it’s true, I just don’t understand why. Hollywood is about making money right? In this case it isn’t because we all know how this movie turned out at the box office. But it did meet the distributor’s expectation so……..

    IDK I’m with Adam, I really don’t care. Will I spend money to go and see a sequel………..probably not.

    This is good news. I’d rather have a dragonball sequel than nothing at all. besides….they might make a better movie (hopefully).

  7. June 6th, 2009 at 16:14 | #7

    Hope its true ‘-’

    great news for the sequal but we need a different director. I too thought james wong could some how pull this movie off and make it great but it was maybe alright. He just isnt the type of guy who makes these type of fantasy sci fi movies like guillermo del toro. He just has no imagination even though there isnt much need for it when you have a whole saga of dragonball z to go by. Lets hope for the best

    1.) I wouldn’t be surprised if it was direct to dvd.
    2.) It won’t be any better this is Fox.
    3.) This is the same guy that spread tons of misinformation (100 million dollar budget, old and decrepit, blurred the lines between the story from the anime and from DB:E)
    4.) This interview was published in May but we don’t know if it was conducted before the movie was released or not.

    This is far from “confirmation” as actors in the past have said they are working on a sequel, for the studio to quell down the claims later.

    cant wait for number 2!!!!!!

    June 6th, 2009 at 16:50 | #12

    LOL, so now we are supposed to believe Mr. James “DBE BS” Masters…. I think that he does believe, they will film the sequel, and it will probably have a 200 mill budget this time and have the most bad ass story ever… unfortunately this will all happen in his head while he’s being dragged to the looney bin, due to his inabilty to get a grip on reality.

    i went crazy when i heard this. i cant wait

  14. June 6th, 2009 at 17:09 | #14

    they need to just get a better director. with 100 million budget and there you go.

    del toro would be a dream to have as a director.

    If the rumors is true , which i most case rumors are false, then i believe if they keep it true to the original DBZ sagas then it could be good justin just needs to pack on what 70 pounds or more of muscle and the saiyan back story told right and kami is introduced then maybe success is possible they should not be trying to bring in new fans the should stay loyal to the millions that watched and read the manga and cartoons
    but thats just my thoughts everyone has there own

    Hey guys I heard that Robert Pattinson is gonna play a villain in the sequel. I’m sure this is a huge rumor, or could it be true, cuz on a website it said that Fox was thinking of it.

    “I’ve just heard that I can actually tell that there is going to be a sequel.”

    -Didn’t he already say this?…Months ago?

  19. avenged
    June 6th, 2009 at 17:44 | #19

    @ J – Hmm but did he ever say that they would begin filming after the summer hm hmm?

    June 6th, 2009 at 18:12 | #20

    fuck yeah!!!
    can’t wait…going to go see it for sure.
    obviously it would be stupid to through away something that has dragonball’s potential after the first movie after it was really an intro to the whole thing.

    this is going to be awesome!!! :D

    Yahoo! :mrgreen: Can’t wait for the sequel. Though they have to do better than Dragonball Evolution.

    June 6th, 2009 at 19:32 | #24

    How can they make a sequel when the 1st movie bombed?

    @Craig: exactly…!!

    right on finally some news on a sequal even though its not 100% i think james masterson knows what hes talking about and if they do the sequal right then it could be the dragonball z movie all us fans hope it will be and i agree get a new directer but keep all the same cast.

  27. Stan
    June 6th, 2009 at 20:33 | #27

    Just another movie to watch~ You nerds need to stop taking this shit so seriously. Its just a fucking japanese manga, seriously….get a life.

  28. Alex
    June 6th, 2009 at 20:54 | #28

    awesome news Adam, though some people aren’t excited I know I am, I was never a huge fan of the original dragonball series and only watched it because I like DBZ and GT (though not as much as Z). Hopefully we see this movie move into the better known realm of Z and treated better than DBE. the potential is there and FOX does occassionaly make good movies so we’ll see, I’m excited

    BETTER NOT BE JAMES WONG AND?OR BEN RAMSEY :x

    June 6th, 2009 at 21:06 | #30

    @Stan: >_>” Errr… Nothing wrong with being excited or being displeased with something you love. Everyone has an obsession over something whether it be from multimedia or from something in their life they just love doing. So you need to not be so rude. Seriously, why are you on a fansite about this “movie” based on a “fucking japanese manga” if you’re going to tell people to get a life?

    Anyway, I actually really want there to be a sequel. I personally enjoyed DBE. (Ive said this a million times lol) I just hope the sequel is more DBZ-esque, only because they’re only signed for a trilogy. Though, I wouldn’t be surprised if this were straight-to-dvd.

    June 6th, 2009 at 21:11 | #31

    This is GREAT news! :idea: I hope that this time James Marsters produces the movie. He actually knows the series and is a fan. That could help out the story. :idea:

    they better not fuck this one up too. although even if they do, i’ll see it. hahahaha. 8)

    June 6th, 2009 at 21:28 | #33

    WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Honestly, I would sooner settle for a reboot in 5 years than endure another “Dragonball” from Wong & Co next year. They have no respect for the source material, otherwise we wouldn’t have had the celluloid abortion that was Dragonball Evolution

  34. June 6th, 2009 at 22:47 | #34

    I cant believe! That the actually the r making a second one.o yaahhh!!! Guyz comon goku,krillen,tien,chaotsau,raditz,vegeta,nappa,dr.briefs,kami,mr.popo,chichi,bulma,yamcha,master roshi and them toking abt the history of saiyans bardock comfronting frieza alongside king vegeta and the saiyans with so many warriors millons of them.it would b cool if james wong werent directing it ben ramsey writing it.y can’t james masters direct write o produce he jes knws so mch.i lyk the explosions in the terminator salvation movie it reminds me of dbz.jesus christ dragonball evolution reminded me of power rangers lyk yamchas acting piccolos monsters and the ki blast the ki blast was supposed to look lyk a flash of bright white,yellow o blue light shinning star sparklin alongsid the wave ki wit nt so colour bt wit mch light and shinnes lyk u cant c it destroyin a huge lod of mountains. Nt blasts lyk from th power rangers weopons jes better let me direct write produce i ll blow all of away!!! Jes lyk vegeta did on android 19 in the cartoon anime manga serious so awsome nd cool!!

  35. no sequel
    June 6th, 2009 at 23:42 | #35

    Honestly, hollywood is going to lose so much more money this time around, or maybe the project would be more cheap and properly even add “GT: to the dvd sale.. F*** U AND JUST GIVE UP, admit that you FAIL and give it to another company with more experience in film making than you. FOX you should be ashamed of yourself, you know the fan reaching to this dumb movie and still you want to push you LUCKY, this is not a casino and you properly would be bankrupt if it was. P.S NO sequel

    No sequel

    You preaching to fox on hear wont do shit they dont care about a fool like you nor anybody else’s opinions. If there going to make a sequel there;s nothing you can do about it hopefully they do it right this time.

    Adam(not the main adam)

    Because in five years we wont necessarily get a reboot you moron we might ever see another movie unless we get a sequel get it through your thick skull.

    June 7th, 2009 at 00:14 | #37

    Alright, let’s hope these guys learn from their mistakes. It’s gonna be DBZ now. There’s no room for error, especially with the Saiyan Saga(my favorite). Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice. . .well. Bring on Vegeta, Raditz, and Nappa! Thanks.

  38. June 7th, 2009 at 00:20 | #38

    with more respect? They should have made the first one right to get the second some respect.

    I really hope they do this shit right.
    Im sick of seeing good movies from everybody else, and Dragonball Z is this great anime and they make it look so bad.

    FOX get this shit right.
    We want to see real action, and real dedication to this movie. Ben Remsey sucks and there has to be a lot of changes to make this movie good.
    Get a right director,(not anybody that will take the job first).

    sayins should come with tails and same exact armor that we see in anime. Vegeta has to be in this next movie and maybe super sayin.

    We love DBZ the way it is, you are not buying anybody else by make it different, because it sucks.
    Advertise a lot and keep the real DBZ feel, no some fan make look a like movie.

    Dragonball evolution sucks and it was disappointing.
    i really hope next dragonball z is going to be 10X better.

    ummm….movies cost money to make. if the original bombed, why waist more money on a sequel? this is definitely a false rumor. james gives nothing but BS, why believe him now?

    o i heard there making a sequel to super mario bros…

    thats more believable.

    im surprised zgirl hasnt said anything yet.

    personally i hope that they do it, justin doesnt have to pack on that much muscle just yet, cause he was still small in the beginning of dbz, like he could pack on maybe 15 to 20 pounds thats about it. im excited for it of course i did love the first one because i do have an open mind to change since dragonball did have ALOT of different stories, but if they are moving on to dbz thats when they really really have to get serious because the stories are all set in stone (besides the movies)

    June 7th, 2009 at 03:12 | #44

    In Germany the first Dragonball Evolution movie hasn`t start.
    It will start on June, 11, 2009.
    Some money come to the box office money.
    (But I had seen the movie in Japan)
    But I hope the sequel will be better.
    I hope we will see a good Vegeta. :)

    this movie needs a reboot… just start from scratch and make it good and you’ll get my money, fox. A sequel in hopes that the whole DBZ series will entice me more than the DB series won’t cut it. I want to see a super saiyan real life goku as much as anyone else, but I want to see it done right, not shitty.

    June 7th, 2009 at 04:23 | #46

    I think James Wong must have learnt a lot from making Dragonball, so therefore he’s going to learn from his mistakes.
