Woah! Remember a while ago we said that Kevin Bacon really wanted to come back to do another Tremors movie? Well, he’s coming back as Valentine McKee once more… but not in a moviem but in a TV series!

Yes, it seems there’s a TV series in the works with Bacon back in the lead role and as exec producer too.

That’ll do for us.

But there’s more… Universal Cable Productions and Blumhouse Productions are developing the series which will be a sequel to the original movie (and presumably the four sequels) but no word if the 1993 TV series is still canon.

The Secret Circle’s Andrew Miller is the current favour to write the new series.

There’s no word on where the series will find its home, but the reports are that, in the current climate, many are interested although Syfy is a possibility we’re hearing.

This could be something very special as Tremors lives in that very special place in our hearts where Ghostbusters, Evil Dead III and Big Trouble in Little China also hang out.

UPDATED:

Looks like Kevin Bacon just confirmed the story on Twitter

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….
