Billy Bob Thorton Confirms a ‘Bad Santa 2’ to start filming soon
With the Holiday festivities around the corner, it is about that time to start watching the Christmas Story for the 100th time. Or dust off the shelf the comedic classic, Bad Santa. For many, the 2003 comedy Bad Santa has become essential Christmas viewing, and it seems we won’t have too much longer to wait for the long-rumoured sequel, with star Billy Bob Thornton revealing that filming on the festive follow-up is due to shoot next year.
“It’s been very hard trying to get the script right,” Thornton tells The Telegraph. “We’ve been through three or four drafts but we’re getting real close. Then there’s the business dealings to sort out, all the stuff I don’t understand. But one way or another, the sequel will happen and the idea is to shoot it next year. We know we’ll never beat the first film but we’ll get as close as we can.”
