Joe Thomas, the actor known for portraying Simon Cooper on the popular British comedy series “The Inbetweeners,” has indicated there could be another film featuring the show’s characters. In a recent podcast appearance, Thomas said he would be open to reuniting with his co-stars for a possible third movie installment.
While speaking on the “Always Be Comedy” podcast, Thomas expressed that he remains close with James Buckley, Simon Bird, and Blake Harrison, the actors who played his friends on the sitcom. According to Thomas, the cast enjoys working together and would consider collaborating again under the right circumstances. He proposed a “stag do,” or British bachelor party, as an engaging plotline that could bring the characters back together years after the original series.
Thomas believes a film format would better suit a potential reunion compared to reviving the television show. He noted challenges in scheduling new episodes years later. As a possible location, Thomas suggested Las Vegas could offer an intriguing setting and backdrop as the characters navigate adulthood. “It would need to be about blokes,” Thomas said, implying the movie may focus on how the characters have matured.
While just an idea at this stage, Thomas’s comments indicate interest from the cast to make a third movie. However, no official announcements have been made. With the massive popularity and box office success of the previous “Inbetweeners” films, fans will hope for updates on if a Las Vegas-set adventure truly comes to fruition.
