It sounds like there may be a “MacGruber 2†in the future. And hopefully the sequel will not blow up in their faces.
ScreenCrush spoke with “MacGruber†director Jorma Taccone about a possible sequel.
“It would be me, Will [Forte] and John [Solomon] writing it again,†he said. “Every time I hang out with Will, we talk about all our cool ideas for the sequel. We have the idea for it and we have a title, but I won’t tell you what it is.â€
Although specific plot details were not revealed, Taccone mentioned the sequel idea will take place during Christmas.
For now, don’t count on “MacGruber 2†anytime soon. Taccone is developing a couple of projects, including “The Great Unknown†and an unannounced project for Adam Sandler.
“MacGruber†earned a little over $8 million in the theaters in 2010. So officially, “MacGruber†was a bomb. So there must be some real die-hards asking for a sequel.
