Revealed: This Bud’s Up For Wall Street 2 Cameo
As if all the good stuff is not enough for Charlie Sheen, he’s up for a cameo return for Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps. Yes, you’ve got that right. The unforgettable Bud Fox, played by Sheen in the original Wall Street some 22 years back, will be reprised in the sequel.
No swanky shirts and humor as dry as a neat martini from Sheen here – just a short and sweet cameo in a role that we remembered him for way back in the late ’80s, when the original Wall Street movie was all the rage. There is pretty much no other insider information for now – this is just about everything we know, and as director Oliver Stone has revealed in an interview.
Sheen made a name for himself in the first Wall Street as a budding stockbroker, eager to get to the top in the cutthroat game of stock trading. In a desperate attempt to snag Michael Douglas’ character Gordon Gekko as a client, Sheen went out of his way and did something that has been proven to land corporate giants in jail: Reveal insider information to Gekko to turn a major deal to his advantage.
Wall Street 2 will include a lineup of A-list stars, including Michael Douglas as Gordon Gekko, rising star Shia LeBeouf as greenhorn trader and lead character Jake Moore. LeBeouf’s character is also the fiancé of Gekko’s daughter, played by Carrey Mulligan. Susan Sarandon plays the mother to Shia’s character. Also in the film are Josh Brolin and Frank Langella. Shooting begins this week in New York, and the movie is scheduled to be released in April of next year.
What is yet to be confirmed, a number of fans of the original Wall Street are also eagerly hoping for a special cameo role by Martin Sheen as Bud’s dad.
Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps is an apt title for Sheen’s comeback, and for his continuing success on and off screen. If money does sleep for Sheen, that’ll be the day.
