"Universal has confirmed that there will be a third instalment in the Death Race franchise.  Moviehole reports that positive reaction to the newly-released Death Race 2, a straight-to-DVD prequel of the 2008 Jason Statham vehicle, has prompted studio executives to greenlight another follow-up.  It has not yet been announced whether the planned film will also be released on DVD or achieve a full theatrical release like the original, which grossed almost $75m (\u00C2\u00A348m) worldwide.  Meanwhile, Total Film has speculated that the movie could serve as a prequel to the series&amp;#039; 1975 predecessor Death Race 2000.  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
