Steven Seagal Looks Towards Outer Space For ‘Under Siege 3’

It’s been sixteen years since Steven Seagal enjoyed the biggest success of his career with “Under Siege” — one of the best offerings of the one-man action thrillers that followed “Die Hard” — and thirteen years since its lackluster sequel “Dark Territory” signaled a slow, steady decent into the world of direct-to-video features.

But now, with the former action heavyweight looking to climb his way back into multiplexes, could a long-awaited “Under Siege” threequel be in the offing? It sure can. “There are offers and we’re looking at them,” Seagal told MTV News. And he even has some ideas…of a more alien nature.

“I personally want it to be something more modern,” said Seagal, giving us his thoughts on potential storylines. But it’s one specific angle that will probably have fans intrigued, to say the least.

“In other words,” Seagal began, “I wouldn’t mind if it was about something more mystical or…maybe extraterrestrial in nature. Some real government top secrets instead of just the typical.”

Well, here’s hoping. So what say you, Seagalogists? Could you see Casey Ryback tossing E.T. through a window? Let us hear your thoughts in the comments below.
