Something Cool! 23 Jump Street Is A-Go!

Few filmmakers have had a better 2014 than Phil Lord and Chris Miller. The duo brought The LEGO Movie to glorious life earlier in 2014, and they were also in charge of one of the summers biggest hits, 22 Jump Street. Man, that was a great film. Hilarious, inventive, smartly script, just a terrific movie. And despite what the entertaining credits for that film implied, it looks like another Jump Street adventure is on the way.

Rodney Rothman, one of the guys who wrote 22 Jump Street, has been tasked with writing a third adventure according to Deadline. The big question mark for this installment is if Lord and Miller will return to direct this film. I'm thinking it's a half-and-half situation at this point if they come back. I'm sure they have other films to do, but these movies are less of a commitment time wise than another LEGO feature, so there could still be time for the duo to do other projects while completing this epic trilogy.

If they don't come back, I won't be as excited for this installment, but regardless of whose in charge, I suspect Sony will give this third entry a similar schedule to the second film, meaning we could see Schmidt and Jenko talking to Korean Jesus once again sometime in the Summer of 2016.
