Question about the sequel


I remembers hearing about there being a sequel that started filming and it was cancelled after a crew member was killed by a falling water tower during a stunt. Was that true or som a dat boo shiii

That was NOT a sequel to Gone in Sixty Seconds (2000) but a sequel to Gone in 60 seconds (1974). It's Gone in 60 Seconds 2 and they've patched the film together and released it on DVD. The actor that was killed was lead star and director HB Haliki. A water tower was knocked over at the wrong time and he was hit.

IMDB has it listed incorrectly as AKA 'The Junkman', which is a different film starring the same actor.

The Junkman (1982)
aka "Gone in 60 Seconds II"

It's NOT this film, but it's on the same DVD as 'The Junkman'.
