'Heat 2' reportedly shifts filming target to January 2027

Michael Mann's 'Heat 2' is expected to begin shooting in January 2027 rather than November 2026, World of Reel reported Oct. 22. The outlet attributed the new target to Stephen Graham's remarks during an appearance on NBC's 'Today' show. January is a reported production target, not a confirmed filming start.

The film adapts Mann's 2022 novel, co-written with Meg Gardiner. World of Reel describes its story as spanning sequel and prequel timelines.
