Johnny Knoxville and Chris Pontius Talk About the Future of JACKASS and WILDBOYZ
Jackass: Forever premiered in theaters last weekend to glowing reviews (read mine here) and an impressive box office number that more than doubled snob-director Roland Emmerich’s Moonfall. It’s pretty funny, but also not surprising that people are still flocking to the theatre to see these guys do unspeakable things to their genitals, encounter dangerous animals, get shot out of cannons, and all sorts of other fun and wild things. It’s nice to just sit in the theater and laugh your cares away.
Stars and co-creators of the Jackass empire Johnny Knoxville and Chris Pontius are getting up there in age, but the good sports aren’t necessarily down for the count. The guys spoke about the future of the franchise on their Reddit, u/jackassworld, in an Ask Me Anything Q&A session, saying:
Half ass stunt men are terrible long term planners, so I'm not sure what the future hold but we will definitely do things together. As for another Jackass, who knows...we could do one, we could not do one. But there is a possibility – JK & CP
Another user specifically asked, "Pontius, what are the chances of a wildboyz reboot? Loved the series growing up as a kid...." Pontius responded, saying:
I would love to do a Wildboyz reboot, I don't think it will be called Wildboyz, but I would love to do another nature/adventure show. And I want Knoxville to be on it with me. – CP
So the future of the Dickhouse Productions is wide open, and the guys are down to explore some new projects… after they fully recover from Jackass: Forever, of course.
