Bill S. Preston, Esq. and Ted “Theodore” Logan began their excellent adventure over two decades ago, but a quarter-century later, the adventure continues. Alex Winter (aka Ted) confirmed that a third Bill & Ted installment is in the works, and that Keanu Reeves is actually on board.
“It’s looking good,” Winter told Forbes. “This is Hollywood so I don’t believe it’s happening until it’s coming out on VOD but we’re all working on the film everyday at the moment in terms of the pre-prep type work so it’s an active project. Hopefully we’ll be shooting it shortly….”We’re knee-deep in the script, it’s been written by Chris Matheson and Ed Solomon who wrote the first two, they are fantastic writers, and the script is great. We have a script, we have a director, we have a studio—we’re just trying to nail down a start date.”
In case you never saw it, the first Bill & Ted sequel, Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey, was released in 1991. Reeves and Winter have both been talking about the likelihood of a third installment for several years now, so let’s hope this time someone actually pulls the trigger and sends those two lovable fools back in time again.
