The film dubbed Sin City: A Dame to Kill For, will be financed by AR Films and distributed by Dimension Films, an affiliate of The Weinstein Company.
Rodriguez and Miller will co-direct the sequel, also based on the like-named comics Miller published in the 1990s, as they did the original Sin City in 2005. The story evolves around characters caught up in violence at Basin City, an ominous, corrupt metropolis.
Casting for the sequel will start next week and production is scheduled to kick off this summer at Rodriguez's Troublemaker Studios in Austin, Texas.
