Steve McQueen's son Chad was contacted about playing in the movie himself, but turned down the offer. He is more interested in producing/consulting on the movie. He has been in other movies (Karate Kid for one) but recently gave up acting for driving race cars.

if they made another one. It was supposed to be a 1 shot deal.I can only hope that Warner Brothers wants some kind of stupid licensing fee and Ford won't pay it. I once heard that they wouldn't do another bullitt because of WB. I hope it's true.
Besides, they've got lots of other history to mine... Boss, SVO, Mach1, C/S, H/CS, 5.0, Spring specials, and hey, they could even do a *cough* NEW themed special edition.
