The long-awaited third installment of the Bill & Ted series has finally started filming as of 1 July. Titled Bill & Ted Face the Music, the movie reunites stars Alex Winter and Keanu Reeves for the first time since 1991’s Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey.

Members of the original supporting cast are also back to reprise their roles in the decades-later sequel, including Hal Landon Jr. as Police Chief Chet Logan and Amy Stoch as Missy (“Mom”).

Bill & Ted 3 seemed like a dark horse project (dark stallyn project?) for so long, it’s indeed rather excellent to see the movie finally move forward. Now the ill-informed speculation can begin on what the story will actually be about. Whose mom is Missy going to be this time around? And what did our Wyld Stallyns do to “face the music,” anyway? They’ve already suffered in Hell stealing Deacon’s Easter basket, after all…

Bill & Ted Face the Music starring Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter is currently scheduled to release on 21 August 2020.
