Fahey is in the "Machete" trailer, so it is likely he will play the same character in the full length movie. Here is the "fake movie trailer" from "Planet Terror":Warning - video is NSFW .http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8cCzltPD6YThe new characters would be DeNiro and Seagal and the girls.And here is the IMDB.com page for the film:http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0985694/An official press release for Robert Rodriguez's Machete7 August 2009 1:34 AM, PDT | From The Hollywood News We recieved some pretty major casting news for Robert Rodriguez's MacHete the other day via the trade papers, but now Rr's production company, Troublemaker Studios, has released a full press-release announcing that news...Robert Rodriguez has cast Jessica Alba (Sin City), Robert De Niro, Michelle Rodriguez (Fast & Furious), Lindsay Lohan (Mean Girls), Cheech Marin (Once Upon A Time In Mexico), Jeff Fahey ("Lost"), Don Johnson and Steven Seagal (Under Siege) alongside Danny Trejo in the highly anticipated spin-off action flick, MacHete.

Already on my must-see list. The cast is so talented. Rodriguez is in the same position as Mann 10-12 yrs ago, when all the big names wanted in his films.

Don Johnson & Cheech Marin in MacheteDon Johnson and Cheech Marin are starring in Machete, from director Robert Rodriguez. The release date is April 16th. It's based on the "fake" trailer that was part of the Grindhouse movie from a few years.The highly skilled Federale Machete is hired by some unsavory types to assassinate a senator. But just as he's about to take the shot, he notices someone aiming at him and realizes he's been set up. He barely survives the sniper's bullet, and is soon out for revenge on his former employers, with the reluctant assistance of his old friend Cheech Marin, who has become a priest and taken a vow of nonviolence. If you hire him to take out the bad guys, make sure the bad guys aren't you!http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0985694/http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machete_(film)

Can't wait to see this, you have Don Johnson who is one of the best action stars combined with Robert Rodriguez who directed the Mariachi trilogy which is perhaps one of the best action series of al time, this will be great!

No April 2010 release date for Machete.Make that August or September 2010, until the next time they change it. Trejo Talks MacheteActor expects the film to hit theaters in late summer. by Cindy WhiteMarch 15, 2010 -

One of the best parts of the Robert Rodriguez/Quentin Tarantino retro cultfest Grindhouse was the collection of fake trailers for coming attractions played in between the double feature. And one of the best of those was for a fictional film Machete. Starring Danny Trejo as the titular bada$$ Mexican assassin, it outlines a story in which he's double crossed by some politically well-connected white guys and takes his revenge with the help of a gun-toting priest (played by Cheech Marin). At the time, it was all just an idea in Rodriguez's head. Now, the complete film is a reality, and according to Trejo, it should be hitting theaters in August or September of this year.

"Machete" release date set - September 3:Eingefügtes Bildhttp://srwp.screenrant.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/machete.jpg

Robert Rodriguez's Grindhouse spin-off film, Machete, has an official release date, (September 3) close on the heels of another Rodriguez project, Predators.Robert Rodriguez is a fascinating filmmaker, mixing family-friendly action movies like Spy Kids with gory, adult-oriented films like Planet Terror. Rodriguez is stepping back onto the adult side with Machete, a film stemming from a trailer seen within the Grindhouse double feature.Now comes word that Machete will be filling screens with blood again on September 3rd. Don’t expect anything less than an all-out bloodfest, starring Danny Trejo as the aforementioned Machete.The cast is a grocery list of huge names and it proves a brilliant mind like Rodriguez can bring in top-notch talent for even the most ridiculously cult films. I mean, come on, the tagline for Machete is, “He was given an offer he couldn’t refuse.” Awesome, right?The cast (alongside Trejo) includes Robert De Niro, Jessica Alba, Rose McGowan, Michelle Rodriguez, Cheech Marin, Steven Seagal, Don Johnson and yes, even Lindsay Lohan.

...and Lindsay Lohan.

considering the way Quintin Tarentino and Robert Rodriguez like to get actors who have been out of the limelight for a while, I guess this says volumes for Miss Lohan, dosen't it?

Also, I was just looking at the plot keywords (click on "See more" under genre on the IMBD link Richie posted) and one of the words was "Topless." :D :D :thumbsup:
