So only three short months ago we were celebrating the return of our two favourite time-travelling rockstars, Bill S Preston Esq and Ted ‘Theodore’ Logan AKA Bill & Ted!
And now, it seems that, despite having a script, cast return and possible financing in place, all is not well at club Wyld Stallyns.
Talking to Yahoo! Keanu Reeves, the Ted of the duo, said things weren’t as awesome as previously thought.
“I don’t know if it’s a reality,” Reeves said when asked about the bodacious duo’s return.
“We’ve been trying for a long time to get that film made, and it still has its challenges.”
So, what gives, dude? Are there problems?
“I really love the characters, and I think we have a good story to tell. Part of it is show business stuff — financing, rights, deals. Nothing creatively.”
So creatively, he knows who Ted is now at this stage of life? “There’d be a lot about him that would be the same, I’m sure; his kind of optimistic naïveté in the face of the darkness will still be there. He has a child now, so I’m sure he’s matured.”
Honestly, this is very bogus news… but, like Bill and Ted themselves, we’re going to stay optimistic.
