Variety are reporting that Chevy Chase and Beverly D’Angelo are in talks to reprise their roles as Clark and Ellen Griswold in the sequel/reboot of Vacation.

Both actors would join Ed Helms as Rusty and, likely, Christina Applegate, as his wife, who is also said to be in talks.

As in the 1983 original, the new film follows the misadventures of the now-adult Rusty, who, along with his own family, heads off on a vacation trip to Walley World.

“It’s catching up with the family now and Rusty will be played by Ed Helms,” writer Jonathan Goldstein told ComingSoon.net in a recent interview. “He’s taking his own family on a trip to Walley World because he remembers that trip being so great.”

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….
