Costner will not be back as Lt Dunbar. On the top of the short list of actors wanted for the role is VIGGO MORTENSEN!

I'm looking forward to this no matter who plays the part. The original is a very quaint and powerful film.

Wow. I had no idea this was in the works either. I absolutely loved 'Dances With Wolves', as it was quite a majestic film that easily earned a soulful spot in my heart. I hope that this second rendition is done right, that is with patience and care, so as not to tarnish the name of the original creation.

The best approach would be to not make a sequel. =\

Cash grab!

It must be a joke . In my opinion one of the best movies ever made . How about a sequel???? .
I'm looking forward to see it anyway. Great news anyway, thanks for sharing.

I Coulda Swore This Was Gonna Be Called

Dances With Wolves 2: Dance Harder

[GreenScar]

There has been a novel that starts 11 years after the first story ends.



The Holy Road

From Publishers Weekly
Eleven years after winning an Academy Award for the film screenplay of his novel Dances with Wolves, Blake offers this dramatic sequel to his tale of army Lt. John Dunbar and his life with the Comanche Indians on the Great Plains. It is now 1874, 11 years after Dunbar deserted from the army to live among the Comanche. He has married Stands with a Fist, the captive white woman raised by Indians, and they have three children. Dunbar has forsworn the white man's ways and is accepted as Dances with Wolves, a full-fledged Comanche warrior. These are hard times for the Plains Indians, however, as the advance of the white man results in war, misery and a gloomy future. When a party of white rangers attacks his village and kidnaps his wife and youngest child, Dances with Wolves goes after them in a wild attempt at rescue. Alongside his tale of Dances with Wolves's personal turmoil, Blake more forcefully tells of the conflicts among the Indians regarding whether to fight the white man or to make peace. Raids, ambushes, atrocities and bitterness on both sides can have only one conclusion, despite an Indian peace delegation that goes to Washington, D.C., to meet the Great White Father. This novel focuses less on Dances with Wolves and much more on the confused plight of the Indians, who cannot understand the white man's greed, duplicity and brutality. Familiar characters from the original novel reappear here in more important roles, making this a more powerful historical novel with a much wider scope. Blake's ability to evoke sadness and joy, action and emotion is as strong as ever, and the ending hits hard. (Sept. 11)Forecast: Fans of the movie version of Dances with Wolves, starring Kevin Costner, will fall enthusiastically upon this sequel, though once they've bought it, they may be taken aback by the high ratio of history to heroics. A Western reading tour will attract extra attention.

Dances With Wolves lived with the Sioux, not the Comanche.

Geez, is it really going to be a couple of years of digging up jewels of the past and making sequels?

I never realized how right Max was going to be. First news of a Donnie Darko sequel and now this.

I Hope You Enjoyed Gone With The Wind, Can't Wait For A Sequel. Its Time Is Due.

You mean "Came with The Breeze". Yeah cannot wait. And also there was a sequel to Gone With The Wind, it was called Scarlett and was a made for TV movie.

[Blu-ray Fanatic]

I've always wanted to make a sattire of Dances With Wolves. The sattire will be called Dances With Tatanka.

Wind In His Hair will be called: Wind In His Butt
Stands With A Fist will be called: Stands With A Rag

Thats all I have so far.

[glenn-bob]

wow, this is just a stupid idea...a sequel??? c'mon.

[SDon1969]

This must be the big, secretive Costner western I heard about that was in the works? Very interesting news!

[fatediesel]

I saw Dances with Wolves at the drive-in when I was around 8 and hated it. That first impression as a child still has me disliking the movie. Not big into westerns anyway so I won't be seeing the sequel.
