On Wednesday evening, Paramount announced its plans to revive the MTV reality series Jackass for a new feature film set for release on March 5, 2021, Deadline reports. Yep, Jackass 4 is finally upon us!

Aside from the title and release date, most of the details about the upcoming movie have been kept under wraps - including which members of the original cast would be returning.

From creators Johnny Knoxville, Jeff Tremaine and Spike Jonze, Jackass originally aired on MTV between 2000 and 2002. Its massive success ultimately led to a trilogy of films released in 2003, 2006 and 2010. All three were produced with budgets of under $20 million and grossed a combined figure of $35 million at the international box office.

If the fourth Jackass movie does include members of the original cast, it will be the first time the actors have gotten together for a project since the late Ryan Dunn died in a car crash back in 2011.

In 2013, Knoxville appeared in a spinoff movie called Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa and last year, Knoxville starred in a film inspired by Jackass. The movie was called Action Point and it saw Knoxville star alongside Chris Pontius. Unfortunately, it performed poorly at the Box Office, having grossed just $5.1 million despite a $19 million budget.

Back in July, Steve-O, one of the stars of the films, said a fourth movie would only happen when Johnny Knoxville was ready for a new installment.

“We’re approaching the 20-year anniversary of when ‘Jackass’ first came out on MTV,” Steve-O says. “I do know that there’s an urge, an idea to commemorate that anniversary in some way. It could be small, it could be big. I don’t know what’s going to happen.”
