Steve Guttenberg told The Sun over the weekend that a screenplay is being written for an eighth Police Academy movie with all the available original stars set to return.

“So far it is really great, everyone from the original movies who is still around will return,” says” Guttenberg. “I know Kim and Sharon have been asked but they haven’t said yes yet. It would be really great to have them onboard.”

But didn’t Mission to Moscow say everything that needed to be said? Do we really need another Police Academy sequel? And who is the audience for this film? Would people return to the theaters just for a pop culture flashback? I think not. And if that doesn’t scare you, how about a third Three Men and a Baby film?

“Tom Selleck, Ted Danson and I are looking to make another Three Men And A Baby movie,” says Steve. “It’s called Three Men and A Bride. The script is pretty much written and we are really keen to get that made. We’re very hopeful.”

Hopeful isn’t the first word that comes into my mind. But then again, I’m not Steve Guttenberg.

  • sgt dingleberry
    this franchise holds a special place in my cheesy heart. if done in the r-rated spirit of the first movie and if the nostalgia is embraced this could be good.

    Ok....but aren't 3 of the original cast members dead?>
  • Erm. Let good things be, no? Not sure how to take this news. I have to say the 3 Men and a Bride sounds better than ANOTHER Police Academy... but that 'aint saying much.
  • tjcoolid
    There's no mention of the "Short Circuit" remake that's in the works. I'm not kidding. Look it up.

    police academy for the win
    but does anyone else think they should just let it go and remake it with people that obviously fit the roles today like.... charley from Its always sunny in philadelphia to do Bobcat Goldthwaits character?
  • Tommy, The guy doing the cool sounds must be dying for the cash! I saw him on a Gieco commercial, so I am sure he is up for it! I am just not sure if my stomach is up for another Police Academy movie! Please just stop!
