Uwe Boll Won't Direct Rampage 3

Uwe Boll Won't Direct Rampage 3

No Mercy from crowdfunders

It's possible that you didn't know Uwe Boll had directed Rampage and Rampage 2. But if you were a fan of those films and on tenterhooks for Rampage 3, we're afraid we have disappointing news. The crowdfunding campaigns have not pulled in sufficient cash to allow the film to go ahead. Boll has now released a video telling us what he thinks about this.

Unusually for Boll the Rampage films aren't based on videogames (so no, they're not about monsters smashing buildings). Instead, they're sort of Falling Down-meets-Natural Born Killers affairs, in which Brendan Fletcher decides he's mad as hell and isn't going to take it anymore, going postal in the city and, in the sequel, occupying a TV station. It's a war on Society, man.

Rampage 3: No Mercy would have completed the trilogy, Fletcher and Lochlyn Munro set to reprise their roles from the previous films. It would have been, says Boll, "an important film", but as of today the project had raked in only half its $50k target on Kickstarter, and 6% of the $100k asked for on IndieGoGo.

"Basically my message is fuck yourself," says Raging Boll. "It looks like nobody gives a shit about Rampage 3, so maybe I shouldn't do it. You'd rather give $600k to some retarded Marvel Avengers bullshit dirt."

"Oh god, the Uwe Boll question," said Dolph Lundgren when Empire asked him about In The Name Of The King 2: Two Worlds a couple of years ago. "But look, Uwe is actually very impressive. He has his own business and he runs everything the way he wants to do it, up there in Vancouver. I wish I could do that. I wouldn’t have to work for anybody else! He makes his own movies, gets his own financing...”

Sadly not this time though. But, says Boll, "I have enough money to play golf for the rest of my life." So all's well.
