Per , Mann confirmed he plans to begin shooting in 2024. He’s currently finishing up the script to the film, which he described as both a “prequel and a sequel” to Heat.

In October 2023, Mann said, via , that he plans for Heat 2 to be his next movie following 2023’s Ferrari. He said at the time, “Meg Gardiner and myself wrote the novel Heat 2, which came out right when we were shooting Ferrari. It did very well. I plan to shoot that next.” Heat 2 could star Adam Driver Rumors have circulated that , who played Enzo Ferrari in Mann’s newest film, could be starring in the upcoming Heat sequel.

When asked if there was any truth to the rumors, Mann said, “Perhaps. We don’t talk about that yet. Let me put it this way: Adam and I got along like a house on fire [on Ferrari]. We have the same work ethic – which is pretty intense. We like each other, and we had a great time working together artistically.” Mann also told in November 2023 that Driver was currently “in discussion” for Heat 2.

“There is anxiety, that you’re not going to pull it off, but you still go for it,” he said. “Adam has that quality, and that’s very similar to a whole number of actors that I like to work with, whether it’s Daniel [Day Lewis] or Bob [De Niro] or Ansel Elgort for that matter. It’s also Mark Ruffalo.

It’s an attitude about your work. And by the way, it’s not ‘work’ as a four letter word. It’s work as a fantastic adventure, and why would you want to do it any other way?” Heat 2 does not yet have a release date.
