Is a Dodgeball Sequel in the Works? The movie, starring Vince Vaughn and Ben Stiller, is a beloved classic in sports comedy. Alongside other favorites like Happy Gilmore and Blades of Glory, Dodgeball has a loyal fan base and has influenced many to take up the sport.
Fans have eagerly awaited the return of Average Joes Gym for a second tournament, but production obstacles have delayed progress. Speculation about a Dodgeball sequel has circulated for years, with last year's confirmation that Dodgeball 2 is in the works, including Vaughn's interest in reprising his role as Peter La Fleur. However, no recent updates have been released.
Vaughn is open to a return, but Stiller is hesitant about bringing back White Goodman. Justin Long, who played Justin in the original film, shared this information. Stiller is concerned about potentially damaging the original's legacy, possibly due to the reception of Zoolander 2. Long also expressed his desire for a sequel, mentioning Stiller's apprehension about revisiting a beloved and well-liked project.
