After the long, long decade of rumors, combined with many refusals to believe it was true, as well as my consistent coverage of this project all year, the massively desired sequel Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day has officially begun filming in Toronto.
Take that naysayers!
As a big fan of the original flick, I’m happy to see actual filming taking place and it’s very good to see Sean Patrick Flanery eating some food and being silly. At the same time, though, I’m still pretty antsy to see some images and footage of familiar faces back in action.
As I’ve previously reported, Sean Patrick Flanerywww.seanflanery.com and Norman Reedus (www.normanreedusonline.com) are returning for this film as the McManus brothers. Billy Connolly, David Della Rocco, and Brian Mahoney will also reprise their roles, while Aaron Berg has joined the cast as JoJo Rhama as has Clifton Collins Jr. as a new character.
Below are a couple new production diaries to check out.
On a side note, director Troy Duffy and crew are also doing a little contest where you can win some sweet gold and a trip to the land of Tim Hortons for a small role in the flick. Check out this link for info and watch the video below to get in and see the goods. A very, very cool contest.
This is the best news ever. Good to see Rocco come back also.

Officially the most overrated movie ever. I’m sorry kids, but it was an entertaining watch, but not much more than The Transporter or The Professional for that matter.
If being a D&D kid is sad, being a Boondock Saints fan is pathetic.
And shepherds we shall be. For thee,
my Lord, for thee. Power hath
descended forth from thy hand that
our feet may swiftly carry out thy
command. So we shall flow a river
forth to thee and teeming with souls
shall it ever be. E nomini patri, et
Fili e spiritu sancti.
You’re totally right. People should be ashamed of the movies they like and the hobbies they enjoyed as children. Fuck individuality. RIGHT ON! I’m so glad you took the time to write a comment like that on a website called… uh… GEEKS OF DOOM.
Way to go, buddy.
your a fairy
how is or was this movie over rated? and d&d is pathetic pretty much old school pokemon. not our fault your real life sucks.

I am such a huge fan or Boondock saints and am soo happy to see the second on being done finally. but i couldnt help but notice in the article you said David Della Rocco is going to be back… thats impossible, he died in the first one. i wish i could see him back since he was my favorite character… but he is dead.

how can you do that its gonna suck you cant make another with the same emotion as the first making another is like turning something great into a bad superhero movie like spiderman why cant they leave it alone as the first movie there is no rightful second the first should be revered as a great cult clasic like pulp fiction resivoir dogs or lock stock and two smoking barrels they are going to ruin a great and timeless film
jason

Maybe rocco didnt die, they were praying over him, but that doesnt ecatly say he’s dead..or maybe he’s just in a flashback, damn people, this is the attitude that cause great movies not to have a sequel. Not every sequel sucked.
