It's been a long time coming, but we now have visual proof that Trainspotting 2 is happening and that it's all actually underway.

These images, snapped on the set show both Ewan McGregor and Jonny Lee Miller, decked out as Renton and Sick Boy. In fact, Jonny Lee Miller's even dyed his hair blonde just as before and he's wearing a tatty-looking suit to match it all up.

Take a look.

 

As we know, Irvine Welsh's follow-up to Trainspotting was Porno. It's understood that John Hodge, the screenwriter, has adapted that novel into what we've got now. How closely they'll follow the novel, however, remains to be seen. There's more than a few portions in the book that will definitely not make it into the film.

And if they do, it's entirely possible the film won't even see the light. Seriously, read the book and you'll know what we're talking about. It's some really, really f*cked up stuff in there. Anyway, Trainspotting 2 is headed for Irish cinemas on January 27th, 2017.

Our guess is that filming will ramble on for the next couple of months and, hopefully, we'll get another few shots of what's going as it all progresses.
