Newcomers to the series include Josh Brolin, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Eva Green, Dennis Haysbert, Ray Liotta, Christopher Lloyd, Jamie Chung, Jeremy Piven, Christopher Meloni, Stacy Keach, Lady Gaga, Alexa Vega, Julia Garner, and Juno Temple.
The film was released on August 22, 2014 on 2D ,3D and RealD 3D. Unlike the first film, A Dame to Kill For was a commercial failure, grossing $39 million against production budget of $65 million. It received mixed reviews from film critics.
