Kevin Smith says first draft of Clerks III is done!

 Kevin Smith has announced from his Facebook account that he’s completed the first draft of Clerks III. When he first started to write the script, he said that it would be the best film he’d ever make. He tweeted the photo above of the script with the following note:

“IT IS ACCOMPLISHED! CLERKS III, FIRST DRAFT!

At 137 pages, it plays like THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK of what’s now become the Clerks Trilogy. And I am SO in love with it. Pictured is the script with the clapboard we used on the original CLERKS. Both the old clapboard and the old filmmaker are ready to go back to Jersey for the last time…”

The first Clerks is a classic, the second was also very enjoyable. What do you think of Smith’s boast that it would be his best film?

I'm an LA journalist who really lives for his profession. I have also published work as Jane Doe in various mags and newspapers across the globe. I normally write articles that can cause trouble but now I write for FTN because Nerds are never angry, so I feel safe.
