OK, I remember reading, on some board, that they (whoever they are:)) were looking into making Irvine Welsh's book, Porn, the follow-up to Trainspotting, into a movie. Does anyone know anything about this? I read they were looking into bringing the whole original cast back for it. Would love to see this happen. I just finished off the book and really enjoyed it.

Here is what I remember reading about it:
* The book is called "Porno" and is now turned into a script by Irvine Welsh as I remember it.
* Most of the integral part of the cast (even Bremmer) were up for the sequel
That´s it.

From Amazon.co.uk:
If you loved Trainspotting, reading Porno is very much like the experience of having seen a great band in a tiny club when they were just starting, and then seeing the same band ten years later in a large venue when they are more popular. They may still be amazing and play your favorite songs, but inevitably they've mellowed a touch, the intensity is isn't the same, and you get a little wistful.
Apparently some of the gang (Sick Boy) has turned into porn and the book is about shooting a movie. That´s what I remember of it.
I look forward to the final product.
