Climate change film ‘An Inconvenient Truth’ gets a sequel

LOS ANGELES — Al Gore’s climate change documentary, “An Inconvenient Truth,” is getting a sequel.

Paramount Pictures said Friday the follow-up to the Oscar-winning original will premiere at next January’s Sundance Film Festival.

In the new documentary, former Vice-President Gore examines global warming’s escalation and the solutions at hand, Paramount said.

In a statement, Gore called for a re-dedication to solving what he called the climate crisis and said there are reasons to be hopeful.
