MIB-Jump-Street-Crossover

The long-discussed crossover movie between 21 Jump Street and Men in Black is unlikely to happen.

That is according to Jonah Hill who told the Toronto Sun that a lot of factors, mainly to do with Men in Black, meant it was now a non-starter.

I had the idea, but I doubt that movie will ever get made,” he said. “They’re trying to make all the deals, but it’s kind of impossible with all the Men in Black stuff. The Jump Street films were so fun to make and the whole joke of them was they were making fun of remakes and sequels and reboots and then now it’s become a giant sequel, reboot.

It’s almost become what we were making fun of and it’s hard to maintain that joke when it’s so high stakes.”

As for a 23 Jump Street, Hill said he’d loved to work with Channing Tatum, and directors Phi Lord and Chris Miller again but it could be a while given their busy schedules.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
