The movie was originally supposed to be filmed back in August 2023, however, a flimsy film schedule and multiple delays pushed the movie to the side. The studio says this project is important to the cast because it is a big 'film' and 'significant' part of Cineflight Studios's original history. The film will be going into pre-production with full scale production slated sometime later this summer. The original cast is expected to return, Mccurry, Puterbaugh, and Colvin. The plot will be loosely based on the original film, with a lot more emphasis over action. For more details, stay up to date on our socials.
