News > Name that Smoking Aces prequel

Written by: Josh Karp 

Whoa. Here's a strange one.Director Joe Carnahan has made no secret of his intentions to bring a direct-to-dvd Smoking Aces sequel to life. What hasn't been clear until now, however, is what Carnahan intends to name the damn thing. Thanks to Cinematical, however, we've got the scoop on his somewhat unorthodox title plans. Carnahan is currently running a contest over at his blog, Smoking Joe Carnahan, asking fans and spectators to submit their proposals for the film's title. As a bit of inspiration, Carnahan has revelead some plot details. Peep below:

"A low level government analyst, with forty plus years working an FBI information post, is slated to be assassinated, for reasons unknown at an exact date and time within the next three days. A federal Grab Team' or close protection detail has been tasked with saving this man's life…' …chaos ensues.' The action takes place in D.C. and in New Orleans. Some familiar faces return. Some very surprising. I won't say any more."

Feeling inspired, yet? Get thee to thy naming….run!

How do I say this without spoiling Smoking Aces? Anyone think that we will learn that the Ryan Reynolds character has more motivations?
