The Daily Mail has just posted the first photos of Michael Douglas, Shia LaBeouf and Frank Langella on the set of “Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps.” The film will also star Josh Brolin, Carey Mulligan, Susan Sarandon, Vanessa Ferlito and Charlie Sheen. Oliver Stone is directing.
Michael Douglas, Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps
Set in New York City, the film takes place 20 years after the original, revolving around the 2008 stock market crash. The film’s plot mainly centers around Gordon Gekko (Michael Douglas) acting as a more of an anti-hero rather than a villain, and follows his attempts to help Wall Street before its soon-to-be stock market crash, and to repair his relationship with his daughter Winnie (Mulligan); though all of his attempts are unsuccessful.
While Gekko is trying to fix his relationship with Winnie, Jake “Jacob”’s (LaBeouf), mentor Lewis (Langella) unexpectedly dies, Jacob blames Bretton (Brolin), and soon after makes a deal with Gekko; Gekko helps Jacob get revenge on Bretton, and Jacob helps Gekko repair his relationship with Winnie, who is Jacob’s fiancee.
Charlie Sheen Joins “Wall Street 2″
“Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps” shooting begins this week in New York, 23 years after its predecessor – Oliver Stone’s “Wall Street.”
“I thought it was a bubble that was over,” Mr. Stone said of the 1980s. “I thought those days were going to come to an end. The excess.”
The story finds Gordon Gekko finishing his prison sentence and attempting to reconcile with his estranged daughter. “Wall Street” could be a movie about second chances.
“When Gekko (Douglas) comes out of prison in the beginning of this movie, he essentially has to redefine himself, redefine his character,” Stone said of the sequel’s story. “He’s looking for that second chance.”
Oliver Stone has just confirmed to NY Times that Charlie Sheen, who played the central role of Bud Fox, a young trader, in the original, will make a cameo in his upcoming “Wall Street” sequel.

Oliver Stone Signs For Wall Street 2, Michael Douglas and Shia LaBeouf In Talks To Star
It has been almost two years since 20th Century Fox announced a sequel to Oliver Stone’s 1987 drama “Wall Street.”
According to the Hollywood Reporter, Oliver Stone is set to direct “Wall Street 2“. Michael Douglas has said that he is in “serious discussions” to reprise his role as Gordon Gekko, for which he won an Oscar in 1988. On top of all this, Shia LaBeouf is in talks for the sequel according to Variety.
As previously reported, Allan Loeb, writer of 21, wrote the most recent screenplay, which will follow Gordon Gekko’s character, who has just been released from prison after serving a 14-year sentence in jail for insider trading and securities fraud. Gekko embarks on the financial lecture circuit, after releasing a book called “Moral Hazzard,” and meets a young Wall Street hot shot, Jacob L. Moore. Moore’s mentor has just committed suicide, after his former company, KZI was destroyed. A trader named Brenton Woods is behind the downfall of the company, and Moore seeks out the help of Gekko to get revenge. But in return for Gekko’s help, Moore must reunite Gekko with his estranged daughter, who he is engaged to.
