Filming Continues On The NYC Set Of ‘Wall Street 2’
Last month we saw the first photos from the NYC set of the film Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps which is a sequel to the classic film Wall Street released in 1987. Back then, it was Charlie Sheen in the starring role … this time, it’s Shia LaBeouf. Here are photos of Shia and his on-screen mentor Michael Douglas (who reprises his original role of Gordon Gekko:
It looks to me like the guys are taking a bit of a lunch break in between shooting scenes … or they could be filming the fraternal hot dog eating scene for the film. Unlike a remake, Wall Street 2 is able to capitalize on the popularity of the first film and still tell an entirely new story. Sure, it still looks like Hollywood has run out of new ideas but at least this movie builds on an idea rather than completely retells it. To be honest, I can’t remember if I saw the original Wall Street or not … but I do recall that Charlie Sheen was the man back in the day. I guess that means that Shia LaBeouf is the new Charlie Sheen.

I just do not believe Shia LeBeouf as a serious dramatic actor. James Franco instead perhaps?

Not to sound ridiculously pervy… but in the picture on the left, Shia has his hand in his pocket so the crotch of his pants is pulled off to one side. There’s a slight show going on.

I am sorry, but Shia looks 12. Can’t take him seriously as a banker, even though they start right out of college.
