Ethan Hawke, Julie Delpy, and Richard Linklater Plan to Write New BEFORE SUNRISE Sequel


There aren't many movies that can get by without any action or huge, expensive sequences and still be a completely interesting movie. Before Sunrise was one of those rare films. The film stars Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy as two characters who, in a short time together, talk about everything and create such a bond while walking the streets of Vienna. It's something that, in a way, I think we all wish we could have: just one night with a complete stranger to talk to about life, love, and everything in between.

Nine years later, the sequel, Before Sunset, came out, and this was just as beautiful. Picking up where they left off, the film takes place in real time and shows the afternoon that both characters spend together in Paris. This came out in 2004. The two films are some of the most beautiful movies I've had the chance to watch. And now, according to Ethan Hawke, the trio have been discussing a sequel over the last six months, and will try to write the screenplay by next year. 

Hit the jump to find out more details on the possible third Sunrise film.



In talking about the movie with Allocine, Hawke says:
“Well, I don’t know what we’re going to do but I know the three of us have been talking a lot in the last six months,” Hawke revealed. “All of three of us have been having similar feelings that we’re ready to revisit those characters. There’s nine years between the first two movies and, if we made the film next summer, it would be nine years again so we’re really started thinking that would be a good thing to do. We’re going to try write it this year.”

2013 will be nine years since the last film, and if the next Before film is coming out that year, then you can be sure I'll be there to watch it and experience such a fantastic movie.
