Steven Seagal back on the big screen?

Oh wow, massive thanks to my friend Baz for pointing this out to me.

Steven Seagal may possibly return to cinemas in the 2010 Robert Rodriguez film, Machete.

Machete started its life as a fake teaser trailer at the beginning of Planet Terror (Grindhouse). Since its screening, the trailer generated a huge amount of interest amongst moviegoers, it was only a matter of time before it was adapted into a full length feature film.

The trailer starred the awesome Danny Trejo as a machete wielding tough guy on a blood-fueled trail of revenge.

Seagal has been making mediocre DTV (direct to video) films for ages now. Hopefully if the rumours are true this could mark his triumphant return to the big screen, perhaps in the same light as Mickey Rourke's recent success, and reboot his career.

Here's the article, I hope it all happens!
