Michael Mann’s Heat will get a follow-up novel that has explored both events before and after the film! It is not quite near us, but it’s not far away either. Michael has been a phenomenal director, and this new career as a novelist seems to be a beginning of a new era. He’ll debut with “Heat 2″, a literary continuation of ” Heat ” ‘s crime film.
Along with him, Meg Gardener has also worked actively on the book. Meg serves as a co-author. Mann revealed in an interview:
“It’s been my intention for a long time to do the other stories of Heat. There was always a rich history of back-story about the events in these people’s lives before 1995 in Heat and projection of where their lives would take them after.”
It will feature De Niro and Pacino. They’ll be seen at their best. Unlike the film,,,, which kept them apart most of the time, the book will feature many scenes. The book will kickstart from just a day after the actual events of the film. If you are interested in the book but still haven’t watched the movie,,,, we’ll advise you to stream it first. Because without having prior knowledge,, you might get a bit confused. The novel has already made Mann sign a multi-million dollar deal! Which is quite impressive.
