Den of Thieves 2 is in the works with Gerard Butler and 50 Cent

Den of Thieves is getting a sequel and Gerard Butler, Tucker Tooley, Mark Canton, Alan Siegel, Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson will return with director Christian Gudegast.

O’Shea Jackson, Jr. (Straight Outta Compton, Ingrid Goes West) is in negotiations to join the sequel.

The new film will find Big Nick (Butler) on the hunt in the streets of Europe closing in on Donnie (Jackson Jr.) who is embroiled in the dangerous world of diamond thieves and the infamous Panther mafia, as they plot a massive heist of the world’s biggest diamond exchange.

Den of Thieves is still in cinemas and has apparently been overperforming at the box office. It has so far made $57 million worldwide.

Canton and Tooley will produce the sequel with Butler and Siegel’s production company G-BASE. Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson will produce through his production company G-Unit Film & Television, Inc.
