Most excellent!
Anyone who sticks with us here at FTN will know we have been supporting the third Bill & Ted movie for, well, forever (here) and now it looks like our prayers have been answered as it’s actually happening!
29 years after Bill S Preston Esq and Ted ‘Theodore’ Logan first travelled tree time in an Excellent Adventure, it looks like Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter are set to go on a most bodacious trilogy closer!
Bill & Ted Face the Music has been written by original creators Chris Matheson and Ed Solomonalong with Galaxy Quest’s Dean Parisot ready to direct.
“Currently in preproduction, Bill & Ted Face the Music will see the duo long past their days as time-traveling teenagers and now weighed down by middle age and the responsibilities of family. They’ve written thousands of tunes, but they have yet to write a good one, much less the greatest song ever written. With the fabric of time and space tearing around them, a visitor from the future warns our heroes that only their song can save life as we know it. Out of luck and fresh out of inspiration, Bill and Ted set out on a time travel adventure to seek the song that will set their world right and bring harmony in the universe. Together with the aid of their daughters, a new crop of historical figures and some sympathetic music legends, they find much, much more than just a song.”
The movie is currently being shopped around Cannes, so we expect (name hope) to have more to report very soon…
I am overwhelmed and quite moved by the response this announcement has gotten. We have been working ten years to get this done in the right way. I will keep you updated on the progress as we keep pushing this forward.. thank you so much for the support. https://t.co/mj3ZH8EpHP

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….
