Step Out of the Car Miaow…Again

It’s not really a project that I’ve been desperately wishing for, but it still comes as a pleasant surprise to hear that the Broken Lizard folks have decided to go ahead with a sequel to 2001’s cop comedy, Super Troopers. Speaking to Michael Dance at Movie Cultists yesterday, Jay Chandrasekhar confirmed that the team was three drafts into the script, had secured financing and were planning on trying to strike a deal with Fox. Steve Lemme added:
“It’s funny, because we have an independent financier — we have a lot of independent financiers — who are like, ‘Give us that fucking movie.’ And we’re like, ‘We will, we will but we have to go through a studio first.’ But it’s a great thing to go to a studio and say, ‘We have the money.’”
Brian Cox is even set to be reprising his role as Captain O’Hagan. Come on miaow, don’t tell me this doesn’t please you.
