In an announcement that no one likely saw coming, legendary actor Peter Fonda (Easy Rider, Ulee’s Gold) as well as Judd Nelson (The Breakfast Club, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back) have both joined the cast of Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day.
This news, released by DCP Boondock II Productions, comes as filming has just about finished over in Toronto, so it seems as if director Troy Duffy has been saving some of the best for last.
Mr. Fonda will be playing a character who has quite the intriguing name, The Roman. No word as to who The Roman is or what he does, but it sounds nice and scary to me. Judd Nelson will be playing Concezio Yakavetta, whom I’d be silly not to assume is a member of the mafia family from the first film; likely seeking revenge for his fallen brother? Maybe cousin? Could be interesting.
As we know, the movie also stars Sean Patrick Flanery and Norman Reedus as the Saints and Billy Connolly as their father Il Duce. Also new to the party is Clifton Collins Jr. as Romeo and Julie Benz as Eunice.
This is all just another level of excitement added on to the pile that Boondock fans already share, so it should be a good time!
Let’s hope his ego gets in the way of this one as well and it NEVER GETS MADE. Troy Duffy deserves nothing.
Thanks for article dude..

It better get made. The first movie kicked ass. You dont know what your talking about Kernel!
Kernel: Troy Duffy is a complete jerk wad, but to say he deserves nothing is ridiculous. First of all he made a super kick ass movie with a very limited budget. Then he gets almost nothing for it. I say even if he is a complete ass he still deserves whatever he can get for this film from his hard work. If this movie is half as good as the first one it will still be better than most of the crap coming out of Hollywood.
SAINTS IS ONT IF THE BEST MOVIES MADE, AND DUFF IS A FUCKING MAN WHOS EGO IS LARGE, BUT HE IS GOING UP AGAINST HOLLY WOOD STUFFY PRICKS, NOT A PLACE FOR THE WORKING CLASS UNTILL HE GOT THERE AND HE DIDNT PLAY THE GAMES,, HES GOT A RIGHT TO ACT THE WAY HE DOES JUST LIKE YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO BE A LITTLE PRICK KERNAL,
