Kevin Smith's MALLRATS 2 Will Be Called MALLBRATS
Kevin Smith has revealed the title of his upcoming Mallrats sequel, and it doesn't have a "2" at the end of it. As you can see on the cover of the script below, the movie will be called Mallbrats. I'm not quite sure what exactly it means, but I imagine on top of the older returning cast, there will also be a group of younger teens that the story will revolve around.
I'm not certain that's the case, but if it is, it will be interesting to see the older original characters interacting with younger, brattier teenagers. I can can already see the many conversations that can come out of how things aren't the way they used to be when Brodie and company were teens.
The returning cast includes Jason Lee, Shannen Doherty, Ethan Suplee, Jeremy London, Renee Humphry, Claire Forlani, Joey Lauren Adams, Jason Mewes, Stan Lee, Michael Rooker, and Sven-Ole Thorsen. The only one that isn't on board yet is Ben Affleck, but Smith is trying to get him.
Smith is looking to shoot MallBrats later this year, and it will most likely get a 2016 release. I'm looking forward to seeing what the writer and director has come up with!
