'Super Troopers 2' Release Date News, Trailer Spoilers, Plot Details - Report Quotes Star Steve Lemme About Sequel, Growing Mustaches, & Kickstarter Campaign
Ever since the 2001 laugh-riot comedy Super Troopers hit theaters in 2001, becoming a cult classic in the years to come, we've all pretty much begged for a sequel. We've heard rumors and a lot of promising talk about Super Troopers 2, but this week star Steve Lemme pretty much confirmed that Broken Lizard is making the film just as soon as it gets funded. He suggests a Kickstarter campaign could have to be implemented, but the mustaches will be back!
Speaking with Us Weekly, Lemme discussed what's taken the project so long to get off the ground.
"You know, it was a combination of having to settle some of the legal disputes about making a sequel, while also negotiating terms for it. The fans have been asking for it for a while, but we were finally able to package everything together," he explained. "Fox is going to distribute the film, but we needed to raise the money for it, with a minimum budget of $27 million, which we've just about raised. There may be a Kickstarter launched to raise the last little bit."

He added: "Everybody who had a mustache in the first one will grow it back. Now the guys who didn't grow mustaches for the first one want to have a mustache. We're making them earn it, not sure how we'll haze them, but they better be prepared."
