Javier Bardem leaves ‘Wall Street’ sequel


Javier “Friend-O” Bardem is leaving the sequel to the hit 1987 film “Wall Street,” which is tentatively titled “Money Never Sleeps.”

Javier Bardem (on the left) and his doppelganger, Jeffrey Dean Morgan (right).

The original starred Michael Douglas and Charlie Sheen. This one will see Douglas reprise his role as Gordon Gekko, and will add Shia LeBeouf to the mix.

The movie is to begin filming in August, but Bardem won’t be part of it.

Bardem apparently has “five or six other offers,” according to one of his representatives.

I’ve got a suggestion for a replacement: Jeffrey Dean Morgan. I’m not convinced they aren’t the same person anyway.
