Der erste Teil von "Crank" war in gewisser Weise ein Überraschungshit und da ist ein zweiter Teil nur eine Frage der Zeit. Viele Fans dachten, nach dem Ende sei eine Fortsetzung nicht möglich, doch die Autoren hatten eine Idee und diese wird wohl auch umgesetzt. "Crank 2" soll direkt an "Crank" anknüpfen. So schreibt TMB: [..] “Crank 2 will pick up exactly where Crank one ends,” says Taylor. “It’s a true sequel. Jason Statham will return. It’s not a prequel, it’s not his brother, it’s not a dream sequence. He will [scrape himself off the floor]”.
“We’re finding that a lot of people were thinking, ‘Oh, Crank 2 can’t be done’,” adds Neveldine. “But we came up with an idea, we wrote the script, and after the studio read it they couldn’t believe that we pulled it off. And of course, the best test was giving it to Jason and Jason turned down every other project so he could do this, start this in the spring of next year. He was so excited, he couldn’t believe it” [..]
