’21 Jump Street’ sequel confirmed for 2014

written by Jenny XXVI.IV

The follow-up to last year’s hit cop comedy has now been officially confirmed by 20th Century Fox. Shooting is due to begin this autumn, almost a year later than had been initially predicted.

The new film will see Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum reprise their roles as hapless cops Schmidt and Jenko, who are sent undercover to a US high school.

Dave Franco is also expected to return as high school drug dealer Eric Molson. Hill will once again write the script with Michael Bacall. It has yet to be confirmed whether joint directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller will be back for the sequel.

21 Jump Street was one of the surprise hits of last year. The screwball comedy was based on the 1980s TV series which shot Johnny Depp to fame. It received five nominations at the MTV Movie Awards and grossed over $200 million (£13 million) worldwide.

Dave Franco Talks 21 JUMP STREET Sequel and Success of the First Film

written by Jenny XI.I

21 Jump Street was one of the biggest surprises of 2012 both critically and commercially – so it should come as no surprise that a sequel has been in the works for awhile now (our previous coverage can be found here and here). At the press junket for Warm Bodies, I had the opportunity to speak briefly with co-star Dave Franco about coping with the film’s surprising popularity and his involvement in the inevitable sequel. At the end of the film, Franco’s character Eric was in precarious waters having been caught and presumably sent away to prison — but Franco said that he’ll still have a presence in the upcoming sequel. Per Franco:

“I’ve heard little things… They claim I’ll be around. Who knows how much they can use me because I’m in jail at this point but I’m hoping they can find a creative way to have me be a pivotal part of the story.”

For Franco’s full thoughts on 21 Jump Street, hit the jump. Look for the full interview soon.
