Johnny Knoxville and his band of misfits are returning to the big screen as Paramount has announced a new Jackass movie slated to release in 2021, Deadline reports. The to-be-titled film will serve as the fourth in the franchise following 2002's Jackass: The Movie, 2006's Jackass Number Two, and 2010's Jackass 3D.
The Jackass film series is a spinoff of the MTV show of the same name. Created by Johnny Knoxville, Spike Jonze, and Jeff Tremaine, the reality comedy program saw a cast of nine personalities trying out stunts and playing pranks on each other as well as the public. The show aired from October 1, 2000 to February 3, 2002.
Deadline points out that upon taking the brand to the big screen in 2002, the three Jackass movies have brought in more than $335 million worldwide. Tremaine directed each of the three pictures, in addition to Knoxville's Bad Grandpa. The likes of Bam Margera, Steve-O, Chris Pontius, Ryan Dunn, and Jason "Wee Man" Acuña, among others, have starred alongside Knoxville in the franchise.
