2007-05-05 22:38:00 The movie Wall Street starring Michael Douglas as a greedy corporate raider in the 1980's is a classic and although two decades old, it appears the film will be making a comeback.

At the end of Wall Street, Gordon Gekko had been busted with the help of his protege, played by Charlie Sheen. His fate was left up in the air, but the sequel confirms that he went to jail. The new film will take off with Gekko out of jail and "resuming his machinations on a global scale in the hedge-fund era." The title will be Money Never Sleeps ... |
