Broken Lizard Gives an Official Status Update on ‘Super Troopers 4’ and ‘Beerfest 2’
Broken Lizard used the opening-night event for Super Troopers 3 to discuss the newly released sequel, the difficulties facing R-rated cinema comedies and possible future projects. The group said Super Troopers 4 and a Beerfest follow-up remain subjects of discussion, while stressing that theatrical support for comedy will be important to the genre’s recovery.
Super Troopers 3 reunites the troupe for Farva’s wedding to Thorny’s sister, alongside a plot involving a local crime ring. The film brings back Brian Cox and Marisa Coughlan, adds several new cast members, and was screened live to audiences in 1,100 North American cinemas; Broken Lizard argued that mid-budget comedies have struggled as studios favour either major blockbusters or low-budget films.
