- The headline speaks for itself. This week’s new Entertainment Weekly (dated March 30th) features a blurb about Jay & Silent Bob Strikes Back, in which Kevin not only comments on Ben & Matt’s involvement in the film, which most you should know already, but also alludes to the name of Mark Hamill’s character in the film! Here’s the article. Speculate away from this one, folks. Our lips are sealed!
Kevin Smith can keep a secret. Sort of. Pressed to confirm that Matt Damon will reprise his breakthrough role as Boston braniac Will Hunting in Smith’s upcoming “Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back,†the geek auteur of “Clerks†is coy. “If Matty ever deigned to be in another of our lousy pictures,†hints Smith (who directed Damon in “Dogmaâ€), “I’m sure he would’ve had a great time revisiting one of his most memorable performances – particularly if Ben (Affleck) were involved as well, and they were both speaking in weird, South Boston accents. But what are the chances of that?†Very good, since Affleck is confirmed to be in the August release. But as ofr a rumored cameo by a onetime Jedi Knight, “Star Wars†fan Smith is back to mind games. “If Mark Hamill was indeed in this picture, he would be playing a character called C–k – Knocker.†Guess it won’t be a family film.
Wow, sounds like EW sure painted Kev into a corner there! Seperate photos of Smith, Hamill, Affleck & Damon also appear with the blurb. Some more excellent publicity for the film, indeed.
