When you get that 2008 almanac for Christmas make sure you dig up a marker and pencil in “Sin City 2” on there somewhere - I know, nobody likes to taint a newly bought calendar, but believe me this thing’s sounding damn special.

According to MTV, Johnny Depp and Antonio Banderas – two old pals of Robert Rodriguez – might be reuniting with their “Once Upon A Time in Mexico” director for roles in the visually orgasmic sequel.

"[Depp] was interested in doing the Jackie Boy character that Benicio [Del Toro] played [in the first one], but he was doing that movie 'Libertine' in Europe and it just kept getting pushed and delayed and went right through our shooting schedule," Rodriquez said." "But there is a better role for him in ['Hell and Back']. I kept going, 'Gosh, Jackie Boy is a small part, he could be really good [as Wallace].' When he wasn't available, I thought maybe it was meant to be."

Wallace is a brooding artist who, due to being drugged repetitively, wanders through most of the tale – “Hell and Back” - hallucinating.

“Desperado” star Banderas is also keen to do some green-screen work.

"When I showed him the first sample of the work, he went, 'Man I'll do anything in that. I'll be the hunchback. You have to bring me onboard, that looks amazing,' " Rodriguez recalled. "So Frank met him that time too and he said, 'I have got to find something for that guy. I've never met him before. He's amazing.' [So we're] looking at the cast of characters and [looking] to see where he can fit."
