Bueller Bueller Bueller...

So yesterday a clip was posted on Youtube of Matthew Broderick reprising his role as the legendary Ferris Bueller. For those of you who have not seen the movie "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" shame on you it is a classic. Drop everything you are doing to watch this comedy.


The short 10 second video features Broderick as an older Ferris. Where he basically opens his curtains and says "How can I handle work on a day like today?" Then the screen reads 2.5.12 which is the date of this years Super Bowl game between the New England Patriots and the New York Giants.



This mini clip is extremely mysterious as the viewer does not know who is advertising this. It could be that they are making a new Ferris Bueller movie and the studio is advertising. Paramount was the distribution company for the first film. Or it could be a huge disappointment as maybe it is just an advertisement for some product. Hopefully it is the first option.

The other questions that have been circling the internet include, who would also be in the film? Would Alan Ruck and Mia Sara be in it? What about Jeffrey Jones?

Matthew Broderick has really tried to make a sequel in the past. He stated he wanted it to be either during Ferris' college years or during his first job. But Broderick said that they were never able to find the right hook in the story. Alan Ruck (Cameron) said "I used to think why don't they wait until Matthew and I are in our seventies and do Ferris Bueller Returns and have Cameron be in a nursing home. He doesn't really need to be there, but he just decided his life is over, so he committed himself to a nursing home. And Ferris comes and breaks him out. And they go to, like, a bar and all this ridiculous stuff happens. And then, at the end of the movie, Cameron dies."


So what will happen? Will the world get an update to Ferris Bueller's life? Or is it just an advertising ploy?
