The Pitch: It’s been decades since William “Bill” S. Preston Esq. (Alex Winter) and Theodore “Ted” Logan (Keanu Reeves) triumphed over Hell and defeated gym-teacher-turned-terrorist Chuck De Nomolos. Sadly, the Wyld Stallyns have seen better days, and the two world renown rockers have been reduced to garage band has-beens. With their rock and roll destiny in turmoil, the entire universe begins to crumble, leaving Bill and Ted exactly 78 minutes to face the music and save the world once again. Strange Things are Afoot: The beauty of the Bill and Ted franchise has always been its brazen imagination. It’s an ’80s slacker daydream fueled by the very slushees and sugary snacks our two heroes grab at the Circle K. Creators Chris Matheson and Ed Solomon have long been self-aware of that fact...
Bill & Ted Face the Music is out in 10 days and to build anticipation for the latest film in the franchise, another teaser trailer has been shared. Bill (Alex Winter) and Ted (Keanu Reeves) are introduced to Rufus’ daughter, Kelly, played by Kristen Schaal. Obviously, Rufus wasn’t going to be in this since George Carlin died in 2008. “I’ve been waiting to meet you my whole life,” Schaal tells the duo outside of a San Dimas home as the duo’s daughters look on. Also, their customary time-traveling phone booth seems to be replaced by some kind of bogus egg-looking device. In recent weeks, a teaser and a proper trailer for the film were released, along with a special behind-the-scenes clip that delves into Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter’s chemistry on set. ...

There’s been a lot of anticipation for the first Bill & Ted movie since 1991’s Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey. So much that the date for the film has been moved up a week to Aug. 28. But for now, a behind-the-scenes clip will do. In it, Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter talk about their bond as the dudes from San Dimas, and shared a story from their first audition. “Reeves and I had read together earlier, and then kind of got broken apart and brought back together again,” Winter says in the video. Producer Scott Kroopf agreed and cited the instant chemistry between Samara Weaving and Brigette Lundy-Paine had the same instant relationship. Check out the full 90-second footage below. See the full trailer here. If that’s not enough, Mastodon recorded a new song for the ...
After releasing the first teaser in early June, Bill & Ted Face the Music has dropped a lengthier trailer. While the initial clip brought us back into the world of Theodore “Ted” Logan, played by Keanu Reeves, and William “Bill” S. Preston Esq., portrayed by Alex Winter, this trailer gives us more information about what’s about to go down. Similar to 1989’s Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure and 1991’s Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey, Reeves and Winter are set on a mission to save the world in the latest chapter. But now, they’ve got a few more responsibilities. While the two are dealing with making their marriages better and guiding their daughters into adulthood, you see that Bill and Ted are still the same dudes we remember from the ’90s. After being summoned to save the world (aga...
It’s been almost thirty years, but the third installment of the Bill and Ted franchise will have to wait a little longer. Bill & Ted Face the Music has been pushed back two weeks to avoid sharing the calendar with Tenet. Both movies have been shuffling around release dates. Most recently, Tenet was scheduled for July 31st, but it was delayed yet again amidst a surge of COVID-19 cases. Now Christopher Nolan’s latest mindbender is hoping to land sometime between August 12th and 14th. Bill and Ted had planned to Face the Music on the 14th, but rather than compete with a sci-fi blockbuster juggernaut, Bill & Ted’s producers are content to catch the next dance on August 28th. As a sequel to 1989’s Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure and 1991’s Bill & T...
