  • Son of Ernest To Rebbot Comedy Series



    Even though the great Jim Varney has passed away, audiences will still see more of Ernest P. Worrell on screen. FirstShowing reports that Ruckus film has decided to reboot the series with Son of Ernest, which will be produced by character creator John Cherry. The story will focus on Ernest's long-lost son.

    According to Variety, newcomer Dan Ewen will penn the script. He already has a project called Dear Satan to be directed by the Farrelly Brothers at Fox, and a family film called Playing with Fire on the way.

    Ewen had this to say about the reboot:

    Ernest was this plucky little engine that could -- against all odds. Ernest struck a nerve, one we're going to revisit. We plan to honor the originals and Jim Varney while birthing a new chapter that lies somewhere between not sucking and Earth-shatteringly funny.

    Check out the poster spoofing The Bourne Legacy:



    The first few Ernest Goes To... movies were decent, so this could be either really fun or horrible. I am hopeful it is somewhere in the middle. What do you think about this reboot?
