It was recently revealed that Javier Bardem (No Country for Old Men) would play the villain in the upcoming "Wall Street" sequel, starring Michael Douglas and Shia LaBeouf, and directed by Oliver Stone.
Now, according to Forbes magazine, Javier is forced to back out of the deal due to scheduling conflicts and other offers. No word on who will replace the actor.
Plot: It's 21 years later and Gordon Gekko (Douglas) has finished serving his prison sentence. He finds himself on the fringe of the financial community and is cautioning Wall Street that the "end is coming" -- but nobody is listening. So Gordon becomes obsessed with trying to repair his ruptured relationship with his daughter.
LaBeouf is a young Wall Street trader who's engaged to be married to Gekko's estranged daughter. He wants to be a major player, but his mentor unexpectedly kills himself, and he thinks a villainous stock-shorting worldwide hedge fund manager (Bardem) is responsible. So LaBeouf goes to Gordon saying, "I need your help", and makes a deal with Gekko who in return wants LaBeouf's help getting back with the daughter.
