Keanu Reeves Confirms “Bill & Ted 3” Script is Finished
The age-old practice of “getting the band back together” for an uber-belated movie sequel is being tested yet again with the beloved Bill & Ted franchise. More than two decades after the Bogus Journey put us to sleep, the most excellent Wyld Stallyns will indeed make a comeback. Alex Winter (nay, Bill S. Presteon Esq.) confirmed via Twitter that the script for Bill & Ted 3 is now complete.

Winter and co-star Keanu Reeves (Ted “Theodore” Logan) are both on board with the project and are still seeking a green-light. Reeves told the Independent, “Yeah, we have a script…we’re trying to put it together. It’s a good script too.”

This is all well and good, but two actors from the original aren’t returning, and are still missed – George Carlin and East Street Band saxophonist Clarence Clemons. You can’t have a Rufus without George Carlin…
How do you feel about a Bill & Ted sequel now that both men are pushing fifty?
