[http://celebrity.rightpundits.com]- The Crank High Voltage trailer is finally out. The movie picks up where it left off; with Chev Chelios [Jason Statham] hitting the ground after being thrown out of a building. Also back for the sequel is Linkin Park’s lead singer Chester Bennington.
Only in a movie world can a man be thrown from a very tall building and not only are his bones intact, but immediately upon contact with the pavement he is picked up by Chinese medics who attempt to harvest his organs. Yes, attempt. Meaning after all of that, Chev Chelios kills the men after he wakes up on the operating table. However, there is a problem. His heart has been replaced with an electronic, temporary heart.
In an effort to track down his heart, Chev chases after the gang in an action packed, violent crusade to save his life. Chelios must, at the same time he is mowing down people and hunting for his heart, keep shocking himself with jolts of electricity to keep himself alive. The writers and directors confirmed there will be more sex and violence, ensuring this film has an R rating.
Other characters in the film include porn star Jenna Haze, Dwight Yoakam, Amy Smart, Corey Haim, and Reno Wilson. Amy Smart confirmed that her character has gone a bit raunchy, and will have a scene with taped nipples, as her character, Eve, has become a pole dancer. She and Jason Statham will also have another public sex scene, this time taking place on a horse racing track.
Also back for Crank: High Voltage, is Linkin Park front man, Chester Bennington. Linkin Park also has their single “Given Up” featured in the film.
Crank: High Voltage is set for April 17, 2009 release date.
