As Heat 2 Continues Coming Together, Michael Mann Shares How Starsky And Hutch Is Connected To The Sequel

Two years ago, filmmaker Michael Mann revisited the world of his 1995 movie Heat through the novel Heat 2, a simultaneous prequel and sequel that he wrote with Meg Gardiner.

Michael Mann wrote four episodes of Starsky & Hutch between 1975 and 1977, just a few years before he made the aforementioned TV movie The Jericho Mile and then started delivering feature films like Thief and Manhunter.

Since Michael Mann is finishing the Heat 2 script, hopefully that means that filming can get underway in 2025.
