American Pie 4 In The Works. Do You Really Care?
Are you ready for another American Pie movie to hit a theater near you?
Universal think it might be time to bring back Jim, Stifler and the rest of the "American Pie" cast.
America was a huge hit when it first came out The original "American Pie" was released in 1999 and became a cultural and commercial phenomenon, grossing more than $200 million worldwide and spawning a booming market for R-rated summer comedies. "American Pie 2" and "American Wedding" followed at two-year intervals.
Then they continued the tradition with straight to DVD movies, With a host of direct-to-DVD titles then followed "Wedding" under the banner of "American Pie Presents," including "Band Camp," "The Naked Mile," "Beta House" and, this past December, "The Book of Love." Which I have never watched.
The guys behind "Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle" Screen writers Jon Hurwitz and Hayden Schlossberg to script a new take on the franchise, which is being described in the development community as "American Pie 4."
I could see them maybe adding a baby factor and maybe one last trip before Jim becomes a father? How the characters would be worked into a new script remains a question; many, after all, are now in their late 20s and early 30s, and the original picture was set in high school. Writers would also need to contend with a world in which the novelty of the raunchy comedy, which was a relatively new form more than a decade ago, may have worn off with the success of movies like "The Hangover" and a spate of Judd Apatow films.
Really what does the cast have to do? Seann William Scott (cast in smaller roles, will always be Stifler), Jason Biggs (haven't heard from in awhile), Shannon Elizabeth (wants to be a poker player) and Alyson Hannigan (How I met your mother) is the only one staying busy.
