Max Allan Collins, who penned the original comic series, has been tipped to write and direct the follow-ups, with EMO Films and JBM Productions lined up to produce.
"Road To Purgatory will follow the character of Michael Sullivan Jr., the son of Tom Hanks's character in the original film, who returns from World War II with a new determination to avenge his murdered father," read a press release.
"His quest ultimately leads him to Frank Nitti, whom he is urged to kill on the orders of Al Capone. [Road To Paradise] will follow Sullivan's continued plight."
Road To Purgatory will be dedicated to Paul Newman, who starred in the original film and died last month.
