Is RocknRolla connected to Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels or Snatch?

It is not a shared-story sequel, but all three are Guy Ritchie crime films built around overlapping criminal schemes and ensemble characters. RocknRolla was released in 2008, after Lock, Stock in 1998 and Snatch in 2000. [Roger Ebert](https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/rocknrolla-2008)

Did the planned sequel The Real RocknRolla ever come out?

The film ends with a title card promising that Johnny, Archy, and the Wild Bunch will return in The Real RocknRolla. No released sequel followed that promise, so the 2008 film remains the only completed entry in the story. [RocknRolla](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RocknRolla)
