Tom Arnold Likes Press
Mon, August 3, 2009 
Two friends goofing around or make-up tests from Jingle All the Way 2? You Decide!So Tom Arnold is doing the press rounds for Funny People (he cameos in the Apatow/Sandler/Rogen film). So by default, that means we'll get another "Oh yeah, we're totally gonna make True Lies 2!" quote from him. And he didn't disappoint, boys and girls.
Although he didn't specifically say it was the long-rumored True Lies follow-up. And by "long-rumored," I'm referring 100% to Arnold himself as the source for said rumors on the would-be sequel. He explains to the New York Times that, "It's not going to be called 'True Lies II,' but it might as well be."
That, and the project currently has zero plot or script but will start filming in 14 months with James Cameron at the helm and Arnold Schwarzenegger headlining.
Uh, sure. With all due respect, I'll actually buy there's a morsole of truth to this after I hear from Cameron, the Governator and/or the trades.

"It's not going to be called 'True Lies II,' but it might as well be."
He's probably right about that given studios adversion to regular sequel titling these days. They'll call it 'Two Lies' or some other such nonsense.
I really don't want a sequel to "True Lies", but I'm curious to see where they are gonna take the story, and even if Jaimie Lee Curtis is old we still need a striptease scene from her.
