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.

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.
I’m so excited! I wish i could meet Sean Patrick Flanery and Norman Reedus! This movie has made me realize that I’m moving to Ireland as soon as I can.
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.
AWESOME!!!!!!!! I hope it can live up to the expectations though! Because the first one kicked asssss and the world expects the same from the second one!
i have watched the boondock saints every day since my dad got it for me and whosoever say it is overrated or anything bad, then by man shall his blood be shed …..lol this is the best news ever i cant wait untill it comes out
does anyone know when boondocks 2 is coming out? i am a really big fan and will be deploying again overseas and just wanted to know if i am gonna miss the release.
It’s crazy. This movie will rock the world. I’m from Denmark and over here everyone has seen the first movie. It wasn’t even in the theatre, but still everyone knows it. It’s going to be awsum. YEAH! Denmark out!
I love the boondock saints!!!!! All my friends cant wait to see a trailer for the second one! How does Rocco come back? I thought he died. Flashback?………Cant wait to see the saints back in action………..by the way, will it be in a different major city?
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
and i dont want to hear about ” oh you have no idea what you are talking about” belive me i do i was a boondock saints fan when it was first released how long have you teenage saps been fans what since some one in your highschool hallway way was like “OMG you have to check this movie out it is so totally awsome” please give me a break
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.
Does the cat Rocco shot come back too? I loved Rocco the most out of all of them, but the least they could do is say how the hell this is supposed to happen.

I’m totally stoked, but am curious how David Della Rocco will return…as a dream, maybe….
does anyone know when boondocks 2 is coming out? i am a really big fan and will be deploying again overseas and just wanted to know if i am gonna miss the release.

Love The Saints!<3
Does this mean he is going to get his band back together and rename them All Saints Day?….please God NO!
i must say im very upset that willem dafoe isnt going to be in this movie.
is it just me or does sean patrick flanery look different?
Wait I’m confused Rocco died in the first movie. How will his character be returning?
THIS ROCKS THE CASHBA.
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

josh is gay by the way yes the perfessional was a great movie in fact its my number two but your still gay
wait how can David Della Rocco be in this as well if his character died in the first movie?
I loved the first movie too, but let’s be real, he can’t be in the second one unless it’s a prequel or somethin, but that wouldn’t make sense either,
when is it due out???
If you watch the videos here they said there was alot of flashback filming done i assume hes in those flashbacks
I killed your cat you drunky bitch!
Why?
I thought it would bring closure to our relationship!
Even if it’s in a dream sequence. I’m glad rocco will be back.
hey bjorno….everhear of a flashback dumbass. it got used alot in the last film. obviously you werentpaying attention to the way they produced it
Rocco is coming back in a flash back sequence. thats my bet
Release Date: November 1, 2009!
“No! Fuck you! You start getting excited!”
Does the cat Rocco shot come back too? I loved Rocco the most out of all of them, but the least they could do is say how the hell this is supposed to happen.
