"Blood and Bone" American Theatrical Poster
Actor and martial artist Michael Jai White caught the attention of genre buffs as soon as he arrived on the scene in the late 90’s, playing the costumed superhero Spawn and squaring off against Jean-Claude Van Damme in Universal Soldier: The Return. In recent years, Jai White has become something of a cult movie icon by appearing in fan favorites like Black Dynamite and directing the MMA flick Never Back Down 2.
However, if you ask the crew at Cityonfire.com, we’ve got to say that Michael Jai White’s best movie remains Blood and Bone – a film that lives up to its title by delivering bone-crunching martial arts action!
The good news is that Michael Jai White revealed via Twitter that he has a meeting planned for next week in which a sequel to Blood and Bone may be greenlit.
The even better news is that Jai White teased the possibility that Scott Adkins (Undisputed III) could co-star alongside him in the film. Keep in mind that the movie will likely be a prequel that takes place before the events of Blood and Bone, exploring just how Michael Jai White’s character ended up in prison at the start of the first film.
Updates: We recently added news about a Black Dynamite sequel and an upcoming film called Echo Effect with “Stone Cold” Steve Austin. According to an interview, White says that Blood and Bone 2 is on the “active to-do list.”
I have nothing against Jai White but what is up with everyone casting Scott Adkins all the time? Yeah, he was trying to outdo Tony Jaa in Undisputed III, and somewhere in the middle he was successful in his own sloppy way… but the thing is, once these martial art stars use up every technique that they know… they run out of ideas. We’ve seen this from Jet Li and from many others. Like when we see too much of Van Damme’s same kicks over and over again, it gets old. No wonder Jackie Chan is always on top… because he always does something different and it’s appealing. I think a good example of what I’m trying to point out here is someone like Gary Daniels. He worked with Don Wilson and Jackie. I thought his career was gonna rise after Blood Moon, but it didn’t… he then started like doing really terrible films… not watchable lol. Fist of the North Star… loved the idea, but they failed to deliver… what’s even more sad is that his sifu did the fight choreography in that movie. White Tiger sucked and for the rest of his films… I’m just like, dude what happened to your creativity? I mean we know he does B-movies, but these were like below the B lol, and he’s a real martial artist. Seems like as time went on his movie career, he didn’t care anymore about the execution of techniques. If it was bad, it didn’t matter because it’s a B movie lol. I think it depended on the film for Gary. Like if he’s working with top stars, he’ll up his game. I remember hearing him say on interview that he doesn’t watch martial art movies haha. He likes watching dramas… isn’t that something? Anyway, I just hope Scott doesn’t fall into this path like Gary… where in the begin it’s about quality work… but later… quality doesn’t matter anymore because they’re doing B-movies lol.
Boooooooooooooooooooooo!
The first was just ok, if they want to make a sequel go ahead but it better be improved over the first one or there is no point.
Dude yeah right, that movie was banging off the charts! Hush up and take several seats!
NO! I want a SEQUEL, not a Prequel!
He returns to the home he hasn’t seen in years only to find his old neighborhood being run by gangsters and thieves. The head of this criminal enterprise: his old friend, the boss of a local crime gang, carrying out robberies and using children to sell drugs. Bone sees the harm this guys doing to the town and sets about setting things straight.
I totally agree the first one was great a second one would be awesome and I love your idea for the second on…
You need to make a part 2 to blood and bone
There already is a sequel. Never back down two
No, in never back down 2&3 he plays case walker.
In blood and bone he plays only known as Bone.
It never mentions his real name in the movie, so at this point its just speculation.
His name in Blood and Bone is actually Isaiah Bone.
they need to make another blood and bone. the first one was really good at the end it gave us a hint there is gnna be a another one. BLOOD AND BONE 2
Can’t wait for Blood & Bones 2 & they need to do Spawn 2
Go watch Walking Tall starring the rock
Should get michael jai white to do blade in a reboot of the franchise
He ain’t to far from Wesley Snipes no we need a younger actor
Please make a second moive I will pay what ever for yall to
Blood n Bone 2 is a must Michael Jai White is an inspirational actor and a prequel possibly but there definitely needs to b a sequel in the end of blood n bone he says to Franklin I’ll be seeing you later so they should show us what happens later
I totally agree
Actually he says I got some business to take care of…..
I’m ok with a prequel as long as we find out who killed his twin brother.
i hope there,s a part 2 part one is really good i love that movie and he,s a great actor and great martial artist
hi all, not only should he do another blood and bone , also star in marvel movie as the black panter, what you all think about that
He should play Luke Cage Hero for Hire
No Terry Crews will be the perfect Luke Cage.
I thank so too
I thank it be ok to do a prequel to see what happen to his brother and what got him in prison. But if your make this prequel I got to make a 3rd movie of blood and bone to see when he comes back to the house just saying..
Prequel will be awesome but I think the unanswered questions in part one needs answering like what happens to Franklin? Did he ever go back to finish him? Is the Consortium still around after police raid the place (considering they are all big money tycoons, I would believe they are though) and what about what business he has to get to as he walks off into the sunset?
I would love to see him doing a double, fighting himself (twin brother) for fun unless his brother wasn’t a fight (which would make sense as to how he died) as Michael was the rebel probably and his brother just being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
I admire Michael’s style and charisma (and my mom loves him. Bleh. Lol) Prequel, sequel, trilogy, I don’t care. Jus seeing him put moves together, 5 seconds training routines and kicking ass is always fun to watch. B&B 2. We are anxiously waiting.
“Invincibility lies in the defence; the possibility of victory in the attack.”
I just saw this movie last year, and I can’t believe I had never heard of it before. The movie is a great action movie with a thin plot and some forgettable characters but see it for White’s awesome martial arts alone.
“I… am the punishment of God. And if you had not committed great sins, God would not have sent a punishment like me upon you”
I think they could do both a prequel and a sequel. When he told him he’ll see him later. That Franklin is responsible for his brother’s death. Cast Terry Crews and Scott Adkins as Franklin’s hitmen to go after Bone.
I loved bone can’t wait for the next film it was very David carabiner kung-fu like and I think it could be a great series.like the Bob wall ohara reference and liked seeing master demura
The fascist DONALD TRUMP said to NYT “I believe HITLER was RIGHT”. zke Donald Trump is a racist with SEWER and the DailyStormer, he listens to satanic 666 sexist music… just google “Donald Trump SEWER 2154” and see FOR YOURSELF!! THE MUSIC yf VIDEO IS about the KKK and Adfolf Hitler raping a 12 year old African-American WOMAN OF COLOR in front of her parents and then hanging MLK with Emma Watson and Taylor Swift!! TAYLOR SWIFT the racist white privileged cvnt said she voted “for donald trump twice” in her OWN WORDS!!! Say no to hate, say no to SEWER, say no to o DONALD TRUMP and EMMA WATSON and Tatylor Swift !! Deport racism today tos.
I am tired of waiting for Blood and Bone.
Just make it and release it already.
Even something that costs less than one fifth of a Hollywood film is expensive and time consuming, and since too many people download these movies for free, it hurts their chances of getting sequels. (The Boyka films are an example of this.)
Blood and Bond 2 will happen if they manage to get the right investors and a high enough demand.
In my 0pinon blood and blood was and is best martial art film since Bruce Lee so needs to be part 2 but only problem is it going be hard make it as good as first
Well, at least they now have the name for the sequel.
I agree Blood and Bone is one of the greatest movies that Michael Jai White has appeared in and I’m in agreement I would love to see a part 2 but it has to be something comparable to part 1, so many times actors do sequels and then go back to paint the picture of how they got there and most of the times they are a lot slower moving because they are painting a picture. Now if you can meet or exceed the action from the original one I have no problems with it but if the action is less just to build a story I wouldn’t watch it. I’m a Michael Jai White supporter I loved his movies since he played in Spawn I was even waiting on a sequel to that but it never happened. I support Michael Jai White in whatever he does just hope and pray that he keeps the action coming.
YES! ❤️ it!
