"Dumb and Dumber To" has just premiered and yet hints of another sequel have already sprung up.
Variety has reported that the directors, Bobby and Peter Farrelly, has expressed interest in making another sequel. However, creating another sequel depends on the performance of the newly-released movie.
Of course, it was not the only one who feels the same way.
The movie's lead actor Jeff Daniels who plays the role of Harry Dunne also hinted that he would love to do another sequel.
"I love the Farrellys, I love Jim...There's great value in making people laugh 20 years ago and I hope now. And if you get to do it again, you get to do it again," Daniels was quoted by Variety as saying.
The movie also stars Jim Carrey who plays the lead role Lloyd Christmas. "Dumb and Dumber To" is a sequel of the 1994 film "Dumb and Dumber" which also starred Carrey and Daniels. The Daily Mail said the 1994 movie was a hit at $250M at the box office. The sequel will be out in theaters on Novermber 14.
The Daily Mail added that the two "Dumb and Dumber To" actors attended the sequel's premiere on Monday in Los Angeles, wearing coordinated bright blazers.
Daniels told Variety that he was himself excited for the movie. "To see the two guys together again, the characters are still alive and well and creating havoc everywhere, it's fun to see," he said.
He also said that he was "pleased" that he still has the "chemistry" with Jim despite the 20 years gap of the two movies.
"You don't get that opportunity (because) usually when they do a sequel it's right away, but 20 years later, I was real pleased with how much of it worked and how great the chemistry was with Jim," he was quoted as saying.
Earlier, we saw Jim Carrey "temporarily backing out" from the movie but it obviously pushed through.
The Farrelly's said that the feeling was "very satisfying" considering the "lots of bumps in the road" they experienced in filming.
Farrelly said that the secret to a good movie is a "great script" but it was the actors -- Daniels and Carrey, specifically -- that made the movie work.
"It's all Jim and Jeff, give them a great script and they're going to nail it...It's sort of like flying a jet from L.A. to Tokyo, you just put it on autopilot and let it go," Peter Farrelly was quoted as saying.
Jeff Daniels also described the feeling of working with Jim Carrey again. He said, "When you've got Jim Carrey leading the way, first of all you're in trouble, but you get to be on kind of a half-second delay when he grabs you and pulls you...That's kind of what it's like to be in a movie with him because he's such an instigator comedically. And that's what you want, you want Jim to be Jim."
Rob Riggle and Kathleen Turner are also in the movie. Riggle revealed to Variety that what made him say yes to the movie was the script. "They sent me a script, and it made me laugh," he said.
