This project represents Mann’s first novel as an author and the first novel from his imprint, Michael Mann Books, which has signed a multiyear, multimillion-dollar deal with William Morrow, a division of Harper Collins.The novel starts one day after the events of the film with a wounded Chris Shiherlis (played by Val Kilmer in the film) desperate to escape L.A.
and then moves to both the six years preceding it and the years immediately following it, featuring new characters and new worlds of high-end professional crime.
Ranging from the streets of L.A. to the inner sancta of rival Taiwanese crime syndicates in a South American free trade zone and a massive drug cartel money-laundering operation just over the border in Mexico and eventually to Southeast Asia, “Heat 2” explores the dangerous workings of international criminal organizations.The film also explores LAPD homicide detective Vincent Hanna (played by Al Pacino) in Chicago, including the remains of his earlier marriage, the effects of his Marine Corp service in Vietnam and conflicts within the Chicago PD where he discovers his life’s calling – the pursuit of armed and dangerous felons into the dark and wild places.
In Chicago, that includes the hunt for a new and particularly vicious crew.The bad guys also get their backtstories, including thieves Neil McCauley (Oscar winner Robert De Niro) and Chris Shiherlis (Val Kilmer), whose character becomes central in the post-1995 world, as well as Charlene (Ashley Judd), Nate (Jon Voight), Trejo (Danny Trejo) and the wheelchair-bound Kelso (Tom Noonan) who provided the bank alarm schematics.
