MOVIES: “ELEMENTARY’S” JONNY LEE MILLER RETURNS TO “TRAINSPOTTING” SEQUEL

Jonny Lee Miller first gained international attention in 1996 with his performance as the drug-addicted punk Simon aka Sick Boy in Trainspotting.  Now, Lee Miller comes full circle as he reprises the iconic role in Columbia Pictures' T2: Trainspotting, the long-overdue sequel.

T2 Trainspotting is now playing exclusively at Ayala Malls Cinemas (Glorietta 4 and Trinoma).

Joining Lee Miller are his original castmates, Ewan MacGregor as Renton, Ewen Bremner as Spud and Robert Carlyle as Begbie.

In the original film, the four life-long friends/associates/bitter enemies had travelled to London to sell a bag of fortuitously obtained heroin.  While the rest are sleeping, Renton sneaks out with the entire proceeds: £16,000 in cash. He walks away. He will not look back.  Now, twenty years have gone by.  Much has changed but just as much remains the same.  Renton returns to the only place he can ever call home.  They are waiting for him: Spud, Sick Boy, and Begbie.
