Super Trooper helmer Jay Chandasekhar is helping bring Cheech and Chong back to the big screen...
There aren't too many stoner comedies that can compete with the majesty of 1978's Cheech & Chong's Up In Smoke, starring Tommy Chong and Cheech Marin. The pair, who went on to appear together in a whole bunch of movies throughout the 1980s, sort-of returned together in Cheech & Chong's Animated Movie back in 2013 (which the pair weren't directly involved with). But a new report suggests that a brand new live action movie is now on the way too.
Celeb Stoner reports that the new Cheech and Chong film is being developed in conjunction with director Jay Chandasekhar (The Dukes Of Hazzard, Super Troopers), and it's in the early stages of development. As Tommy Chong told the site, "it will be about us going to a festival called the Burning Joint. All sorts of shenanigans happen. It's going to be a lot of fun".
It's still early days for the project, but we'll keep you posted on it...
