'John Tucker Must Die' is officially getting a sequel almost 20 years later.
The cult classic teen comedy, which was released in 2006 and starred Jesse Metcalfe as the titular heartbreaker, is poised for a revival after the leading man admitted he had heard "there is a script".
Speaking with his fellow cast members during a panel at Epic Cons Chicago, he said: "I’ve been hearing rumblings about this script circulating Hollywood - apparently it’s amazing.”
Although Metcalfe insisted he hadn't been asked to reprise his role or even seen the script, he added: "I'd definitely love to be a part of it, and I can't wait to read it."
His co-star Arielle Kebbel went one further and confirmed she is heavily involved in the highly anticipated sequel.
She said: “The rumour is true . I started producing a few years ago. There is a script. We are very proud of it.
"It does involve all of the OG cast… That’s pretty much all I can say for now.”
Kebbel teased that the John Tucker "may or may not get a chance to change", while fellow cast mate Sophia Bush insisted she's "ready to go" and return as Beth McIntyre.
Metcalfe openly wondered if he'd have to wear a thong again, and Kebbel quipped: "We wanted to talk to you about that.
"We were thinking you’d actually, like, make your own brand, endorse it. It’d be a whole thing.”
He replied: "I'm here for it. I can't wait to unleash this dad bod on the big screen."
