A film sequel has been in development since 2016 when Taccone and Forte began writing the script for the project, but after working on and off on it, Taccone announced to The Daily Beast (via Collider) that they were instead working on a series adaptation of the sketch instead.
“We just spent the last two days pitching it as a series,” reveals Taccone. “Eight-to-ten episodes. I’m really hoping that when you print this there’s an announcement that it’s actually happening, because I know nothing right now. This is the first time I’ve mentioned it, so this may be a tragic interview.”
