Turns out Danny McBride’s Crocodile Dundee sequel isn’t really a movie at all

January 24th, 2018 by Marc Comments

See, when we first heard about Dundee: The Son of A Legend Returns Home we thought it might be a wind-up (here).

Then when the second trailer landed and featured not just Danny McBride as Crocodile Dundee’s son, but also Chris Hemsworth (here) our suspicions both depended and also believed it was all true a bit more too (we were conflicted, ok?).

It seems however that we’ve all been had as The Brisbane Times has revealed that it isn’t a movie at all but rather “an advertising campaign by Tourism Australia, which will include a commercial that will air during the Super Bowl.”

 

Weird thing is that now we know the truth, we can’t help but feel a little disappointed.

Ah, well.

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….
