Adam Driver Confirms His Role in Heat 2, Comments on Recent Michael Mann Shooting

Adam Driver has confirmed his role in Heat 2, and commented on director Michael Mann's recent shooting accident.

Appearing on an episode of The Rich Eisen Show, Driver confirmed to the host that he will be playing the role of Otis Wardell in Mann's upcoming follow-up to the 1995 crime film. With a story spanning multiple time periods, Heat 2 serves as both a prequel and a sequel to the original film, and Driver's Wardell character is its principal antagonist. In letting confirmation of his role slip, Driver joked, "I think I can say that, but I'll find out pretty soon [if I can't]."

Driver also expressed enthusiasm at being reunited with Mann, who he previously teamed up with on the 2023 motor racing biopic, Ferrari.

"Heat is a masterpiece," Driver told Eisen. "I love Michael, I loved working with him [on] Ferrari, but working on this? I'm excited. The cast is so awesome."

Driver also mentioned that Heat 2's shooting schedule had been delayed, and that he wouldn't start on the production until early December. When asked by Eisen if the delay had been caused by Mann's recent shooting accident at a Los Angeles gun range, Driver insisted that Mann's misfortune hadn't significantly halted production.

"No, [the delay] was already part of the plan," said Driver. "[Mann] is good. I texted him, he immediately responded, [and] he was at work the next day."

Heat 2's well, heat , has been rising steadily since February of this year, when The Dark Knight star Christian Bale confirmed that he was about to start filming the movie in Chicago.
