Frank Miller Back for Two More 'Spirit'
By

Whatever Frank Miller is doing over there on the set of The Spirit has got to be working, because Lionsgate has just signed the comic creator-turned-filmmaker for two sequels.
They're expecting the movie to be a big hit, even though they're releasing it in January. Without a big superhero competition then, who knows, maybe it'll even break Cloverfield's record.
The film pits Gabriel Macht as The Spirit, an ex-cop who fakes his death so he can fight crime as his domino-mask wearing alter ego, against Samuel L. Jackson as a mysterious villain named The Octopus who wants to wipe out the entire city, all the while dealing with a bevy of femme fatales played by the likes of Scarlett Johannsen and Eva Mendes.
