Boyle to begin shooting 'Trainspotting' sequel next summer

Director Danny Boyle says he plans to begin shooting the long awaited "Trainspotting" sequel next summer.
Boyle said the film will then hit cinemas later in 2016, in time for the original film's 20th anniversary, said the Hollywood Reporter.
While promoting his latest film Steve Jobs in London, Boyle confirmed that the shoot was planned for "May/June", but due to Miller and Carlisle's US TV commitments, it might well be as tight as the first, which was filmed in just seven weeks.
"They only get this little window off, so either you wait for the contract to run down, which could be as late as three years, or you kind of try and do it in this window," Boyle said.

"But all four lads (McGregor, Miller, Carlyle and Ewen Bremner) are back in."
The plan is then to release the film as early as next year.
While the original was made on a shoestring budget of just USD 2 million, the sequel is set to cost much more, but Boyle said it's low enough to keep away any meddling hands.
"We're doing it for less than USD 20 million, and that'll give us control of the film so we can make the film we want to make," he said.
