AceShowbiz - Dave Bautista is set to star in action thriller film "Escape Plan 2". The movie is currently prepping for a production, which will begin this spring. However, plot details are still kept under wraps, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The "Guardians of the Galaxy" star is joining Sylvester Stallone, who will reprise his role as Ray Breslin in the follow-up to 2013's movie "Escape Plan".

The upcoming prison break movie will be directed by Steven C. Miller. It will be produced by Randall Emmett, George Furla, Mark Canton and Zack Schiller. Meanwhile, Ted Fox, Mark Stewart, Barry Brooker and Stan Wertlieb will executive produce the project. Miles Chapman, who wrote the first movie, will pen the screenplay for the sequel.
Bautista will reprise his role as Drax the Destroyer in "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2", which is set to hit U.S. theaters on May 5. His character is also expected to join forces with "The Avengers" in "Avengers: Infinity War", which is scheduled to be released on May 4, 2018.
