The Heat 2<\/a><\/strong> cast is finally starting to fall into place. One actor who would be perfect to star alongside Leonardo DiCaprio<\/a> in the Heat<\/span> sequel is Inde Navarrette<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n There have been several A-list actors rumored for key roles, and several stars are now close to officially signing on. According to TheWrap<\/a>, DiCaprio and Christian Bale<\/a> are set to star in Heat 2. TheWrap\u2019s source says the deals have either already been closed or are in final negotiations.<\/p>\n DiCaprio will play Chris Shiherlis, the role originated by Val Kilmer<\/a>. Chris is the main character of Heat 2. The story focuses on his time with Neil McCauley in 1988, the immediate events following Heat in 1995-1996, and his future transgressions working for a crime family in 2000. Meanwhile, Bale will play Vincent Hanna, the LAPD detective that Al Pacino<\/a> depicted in the 1995 movie.<\/p>\n Adam Driver<\/a> is being recruited to play the film\u2019s villain, Wardell, while Stephen Graham<\/a> is in talks to play Neil, the Robert De Niro<\/a> role from the first movie.<\/p>\n As for the female roles, one of the top parts is Sharlene, Chris\u2019 wife in Heat. Ashley Judd<\/a> previously played the role. TheWrap reports many actresses are vying for the role, including \u201cA-list names.\u201d Could one of those actresses be Navarrette?<\/p>\n During a recent interview with Nylon Magazine<\/a>, Navarrette revealed that she recently met with Michael Mann<\/a>. Though Nylon did not reveal what the meeting was for, it\u2019s possible that Navarrette\u2019s meeting was for a potential role in Mann\u2019s Heat 2.<\/p>\n It\u2019s unlikely Navarrette would play Sharlene because of the A-list qualifications. Navarrette is certainly a breakout star thanks to Obsession<\/a>, but she has not reached the A-list. However, there are three female roles Navarette could play.<\/p>\n The first is Ana, Chris\u2019 new love interest from the Taiwanese crime syndicate based in Paraguay. The second female role is Elisa, Neil\u2019s girlfriend in 1988.<\/p>\n The third role, and my pick for who Navarrette could play, is Gabriela, Elisa\u2019s daughter. While Elisa\u2019s daughter is a young kid in 1988, she reappears in the 2000s timeline in her early 20s, making it the right age for Navarrette to play her.<\/p>\n This is purely speculation as of now, but casting a rising star like Navarrette to act alongside DiCaprio and Bale would be a smart decision from Mann. Navarrette\u2019s fanbase from Obsession could help bring in a new, younger audience to Heat 2. It would also a great career move for Navarrette to be cast in a highly anticipated sequel like Heat 2.<\/p>\n Originally reported by Dan Girolamo for ComingSoon<\/a>.<\/p>\n The post Heat 2 Cast: Inde Navarrette Would Be Perfect for Key Role in Leonardo DiCaprio Movie<\/a> appeared first on Mandatory<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Heat 2 cast is finally starting to fall into place.
