Cult film icon Danny Trejo, during a signing appearance at last weekend’s Mad Monster Party convention in Charlotte, NC revealed that filming begins later this year on Machete Kills Again…In Space alongside director Robert Rodriguez.

“Robert and I are going to start to do Machete Kills In Space,” Trejo reports to HalloweenDailyNews, “so that’s going to be awesome. Absolutely. We’re going to be working on it this year.” – Trejo was also on-hand for an exclusive film interview with our very own Nerd Nation TV – which will be posted within the coming week right here on NerdNationMagazine.com.
Machete Kills Again…In Space is the third in a trilogy that -believe it or not – almost never-was. The concept for the original Machete started with the faux-trailer included in Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez’s 2007 double-feature: Grindhouse. By 2010, there was a feature-length Machete (co-directed by Ethan Maniquis) in theaters, followed up by 2013’s Machete Kills.
As stated earlier, please stay tuned for the exclusive interview with Danny Trejo (courtesy of our very own John Dondero and Dave Harlequin who were on-hand at Mad Monster Party) on the brand new video-news-feature for Nerd Nation Magazine: Nerd Nation TV, which will debut later this month!
