Tremors Sequel Asked By A Fan, Kevin Bacon Says “I’m Just Waiting For The Call”
American actor Kevin Bacon is waiting again to take part in a new sequel to ‘Tremors’.
His love for the 1990 movie is pretty well documented, reports People magazine.
Not only is it the only film of his he’s seen since its premiere, but he also admitted he still wants to star in a sequel in a 2021 ‘Esquire’ profile. He recently expressed his admiration for ‘Tremors’ but when he was asked by a fan if he wanted to make a sequel to the cult classic.
According to People, after a Twitter user recently wrote that the latest “Shazam! The Fury of the Gods trailer makes him “really want to see a new ‘Tremors’ movie that’s not straight to DVD,” Bacon weighed in for fans.
“I’m just waiting for the call,” he wrote with an appropriately placed worm emoji. The comment comes nearly 33 years after the Ron Underwood-directed movie first wowed fans with a stacked cast, featuring Kevin Bacon, including the late Fred Ward and Reba McEntire. It took place in the town of Perfection, Nevada, where residents were trying to defend themselves against underground worm-like creatures.
The film spawned several direct-to-video sequels featuring most of the main cast, including ‘Tremors 2: Aftershocks’, ‘Tremors 3: Back to Perfection’, ‘Tremors 4: The Legend Begins’, ‘Tremors 5: Bloodlines’, ‘Tremors: A Cold Day in Hell’ and 2020’s ‘Tremors: Shrieker Island’.
Still, he has spoken out about the franchise’s future, telling “Esquire” in 2021 that Universal approached him years ago about making more of the films, even though they would have been direct-to-video. As he passed away at the time, he hoped to rekindle his relationship with the franchise around 2015.
