‘Ferris Bueller’s Day Off’ Getting a Spinoff Movie

Ferris Bueller wasn’t the one one to take a day without work. (Apparently.)

Nearly 40 years after the enduring ’80s teen hero appeared in John Hughes’ Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, the movie is getting a by-product. My first assumption once I heard that information was that somebody had satisfied Matthew Broderick to reprise his function as Ferris for some sort of legacyquel a couple of middle-aged Bueller (“Bueller…? Bueller?”) coping with his personal teenage youngsters, an idea that somebody has to have pitched round Hollywood in some unspecified time in the future.

As a substitute, by way of Deadline, we’re getting one thing known as Sam and Victor’s Day Off, concerning the two valets who parked Cameron’s dad’s priceless Ferrari and took it for an unbelievable pleasure trip round Chicago. Per their report, “Sam and Victor’s Day Off will comply with the same-day journey of the titular valets who took the Ferrari on a pleasure trip within the Matthew Broderick-starrer. Within the authentic movie, the valet attendants weren’t given official names. They have been performed by Richard Edson and Larry “Flash” Jenkins, who died in 2019.”

In case you don’t recall that scene, right here’s a clip…

The mission is being written by the creators of the hit Karate Child spinoff/sequel sequence Cobra Kai, Jon Hurwitz, Hayden Schlossberg, and Josh Heald. They definitely know a factor or two about taking ’80s classics and updating them for a contemporary viewers.

Nonetheless, this isn’t essentially an replace; it’s a interval piece (properly, now it’s) set on the identical day as Ferris Bueller all about these two characters getting their very own journey. It’s like Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Lifeless, solely they’re not lifeless, they usually’re tooling round city in a Ferrari.

I can’t say I’ve ever had a lot curiosity about these characters’ day past what we see within the film, however folks do love Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. Anyway, prepare to listen to “Oh Yeah” by Yello about 60 million extra instances.
