Kevin Smith has revealed via Instagram that he is planning, and indeed has already written a script for a Jay and Silent Bob movie reboot. The news follows a false start on a further sequel to Clerks and a Mallrats TV series. It even has a title: Jay & Silent Bob Reboot.
“While I love playing with someone else’s new toys on ‘The Flash’ and ‘Supergirl,’ I’m getting eager to play with my old toys again in the inter-connected View Askewniverse I spent the first half of my career creating,” Smith said.
“And so all last month, I had the time of my life laughing while writing ‘Jay and Silent Bob Reboot’ – a fun flick in which the Jersey boys have to go back to Hollywood to stop a brand new reboot of the old ‘Bluntman & Chronic Movie’ they hated so much.”
“It’s a tongue-in-cheek, silly-ass satire that pokes fun at the movie business’s recent re-do obsession, featuring an all-star cast of cameos and familiar faces! And I already met with the good folks at Miramax and they’re into it, so I’m hoping we’ll be shooting in the summer.”
Great news for fans of the cult duo. Should the film shoot this summer we imagine a release date has already been pencilled for 2018. Here’s the original post on Instagram.
