Despite high hopes for the franchise’s future, the best possible outcome for Sicario 3 now seems impossible. 2015’s Sicario was one of the decade’s most critically acclaimed crime/action thrillers, with a terrific combination of Denis Villeneuve’s directing and Taylor Sheridan’s writing. Funnily enough, the film was released before either of them reached their current level of acclaim, with Villeneuve widely praised for his work on the Dune films and Taylor Sheridan’s TV shows becoming some of the most popular on streaming. Sicario: Day of the Soldado was released in 2018, with Sheridan writing but Stefan’s Sollima subbed in to direct.
