Ever since BILL & TED’S BOGUS JOURNEY hit theaters in 1991, folks have wondered if we’d ever get a third installment of the BILL & TED franchise. It’s a question Keanu Reeves would regularly get at press junkets for other film, and probably got tired of answering. Now, finally, we’re getting a 3rd movie in BILL & TED FACE THE MUSIC, which hits theaters this August. Alex Winter returns as William “Bill” S. Preston Esq. and Keanu Reeves is back as Theodore “Ted” Logan, the two lead members of the band Wyld Stallyns, who have apparently lost their popularity a bit. It seems they never wrote that one song that will unite the world. And now they have kids, played in the movie by Brigette Lundy-Payne and Samara Weaving. We also see the return of William Sadler as Death, and the supporting cast includes Holland Taylor, Anthony Carrigan, Kid Cudi, Jillian Bell, Beck Bennett and Kristen Schaal. It’s directing by Dean Parisot (who gave us the most excellent GALAXY QUEST), and the screenplay is written by Chris Matheson and Ed Solomon, who gave us BILL & TED’S EXCELLENT ADVENTURE and the sequel. I can honestly say, I’m really excited for this, but I can’t help wondering if today’s young generation (who didn’t grow up on Bill & Ted) will care. Take a look at the teaser and tell us your thoughts in the comments..
