Director Jerry Bruckheimer revealed a sequel for “Crimson Tide” is in the works — and that Denzel Washington could return to his role from the original movie from 1995!

If he does board the project, Washington will need a new on-screen adversary. Hackman died in February at the age of 95. Tony Scott, the original director of “Crimson Tide,” and Robert Towne, one of its writers, have also died.

It’s been three decades since Crimson Tide first detonated in theaters. This was an intense, claustrophobic thriller of submarine warfare, nuclear standoffs, and powerhouse performances. I never thought we’d ever see a sequel,
