Rumor of the Day: Patrick Swayze in 'Point Break 2'
Warning: Video above contains foul language
It came as a shock in March to find out that Patrick Swayze was battling pancreatic cancer. Since then, there have been a lot of conflicting rumors and reports about his health, but now one is movie-related. Cinema Blend came across a news piece on Asian News International that Swayze would like to return to the sequel of Point Break, "if his health allows."
This comes on the heels of news that a sequel was on the way, so this could definitely be an example of wishful thinking. And hey, rumors that suggest the possibility of health, rather than death, are okay in my book. That being said, I don't think Point Break 2 is the next film I'd like to see Swayze in. If he's able to beat the cancer and get back to work, I'd love to see him cast in something that brings back the glory days of Swayze. We don't need questionable sequels; we need full-on and awesome Swayze.
Any ideas? What could bring Swayze back to form? Or, is a sequel of the gem above what the moviegoing world needs?

(Page 1)3. I think we could all use some more Swayze in our lives. Im not too into the idea of an '18 years later' sequel. But I mean, how hard could it be to whip up another screenplay where 'the swayz' gets to kick ten dudes a$$es, drive a jeep on the beach, play football, wax eastern philosophy, wax a surfboard, and get the girl?
somebody get on that!
4. I wish Patrick Swayze well, and hope he returns, quickly, to the very best of health. A smashing bloke who deserves another chance at life...Good luck, Patrick, from one Pat to another..oh, leave the ciggies alone and chew gum instead.
