'John Tucker Must Die' is officially getting a sequel almost 20 years later.
Jesse Metcalfe reveals John Tucker Must Die sequel plans
The cult classic teen comedy, which was released in 2006 and starred Jesse Metcalfe as the titular heartbreaker, is poised for a revival after the leading man admitted he had heard "there is a script".
Speaking with his fellow cast members during a panel at Epic Cons Chicago, he said: "I’ve been hearing rumblings about this script circulating Hollywood - apparently it’s amazing.”
Although Metcalfe insisted he hadn't been asked to reprise his role or even seen the script, he added: "I'd definitely love to be a part of it, and I can't wait to read it."
His co-star Arielle Kebbel went one further and confirmed she is heavily involved in the highly anticipated sequel.
She said: “The rumour is true . I started producing a few years ago. There is a script. We are very proud of it.
"It does involve all of the OG cast… That’s pretty much all I can say for now.”
Kebbel teased that the John Tucker "may or may not get a chance to change", while fellow cast mate Sophie Bush insisted she's "ready to go" and return as Beth McIntyre.
Metcalfe openly wondered if he'd have to wear a thong again, and Kebbel quipped: "We wanted to talk to you about that.
"We were thinking you’d actually, like, make your own brand, endorse it. It’d be a whole thing.”
He replied: "I'm here for it. I can't wait to unleash this dad bod on the big screen."
The original 2006 movie saw jock hunk John Tucker in trouble after three girls - played by Bush, Kebbel and Ashanti - find out he has secretly been dating all three of them.
They put together a scheme to get new girl Kate (Brittany Snow) to seduce and eventually break his heart in a bid for revenge.
