Viewers who were entertained by the violence, weapons, and not-too-heavy plotline of Paul W.S. Anderson’s Death Race will be pleasantly surprised (and probably even more entertained) by the its recently-released prequel, Roel Reine’s Death Race 2. Replacing Jason Statham as the protagonist is Luke Goss (One Night With The King, Hellboy II: The Golden Army), playing Carl “Luke” Lucas, who is serving a life sentence for the unintentional shooting of a cop during a foiled bank robbery.

 

Spoilers ahead.
