'Backdraft' Is Getting A Sequel 27 Years After The Original, With Only One Of The Original Stars

The Chicago-based thriller followed the fire department as they take on some big fires and some big drama.The cast was really impressive, and included big names like Robert De Niro, Kurt Russell, Billy Baldwin, and Donald Sutherland.
