It's easy to look on the bright side of life when you've got a Monty Python reunion to look forward to. While the official announcement and press conference will take place on Thursday, details are starting to emerge about an official Monty Python reunion happening in 2014. The Python reunion will consist of a stage show, but leaves the door open for film or TV after that's run its course. And while the late Graham Chapman remains, tragically "expired and gone to meet his maker" the surviving members of Monty Python, John Cleese, Terry Jones, Eric Idle, Terry Gilliam, and Michael Palin are all set to show up for the press conference at London's Playhouse Theater (current home to Monty Python musical, Spamalot).
Python stalwart Terry Jones told the BBC,""We're getting together and putting on a show - it's real." While Eric Idle tweeted for Monty Python fans to be ready for "the big forthcoming news event." Hopefully they also shed some light about the status of a number of animated projects that several Pythons have been involved in over the last few years, as well! We've got details on some of them right here.
We'll update this story once the announcements are made on Thursday!
