The latest poster for Kevin Smith’s upcoming Clerks 3 gives fans their first official look at life at the Quick Stop nearly thirty years later, with franchise fixtures Jay and Silent Bob as present as ever. The sequel has been a long time coming, with many fans having given up on the idea several years ago, when Smith seemed to make it clear that the film wasn’t happening. Fortunately, Clerks 3 is shot and ready to go, and it will pick up with the same characters fans love and remember from the first movie.
Since its initial debut in 1994, Clerks has been a keystone of Smith’s enduring career. The film kickstarted an entire generation’s approach to filmmaking, and although independent cinema might not get the attention that it once did, there’s no denying that Clerks has influenced countless numbers of aspiring creatives. When a sequel arrived in 2006, the series seemed to receive a satisfying end. What’s more, thanks to their appeal in the original Clerks film, Smith found a solid base for his Jay and Silent Bob characters. The stoner duo, played by Smith (Silent Bob) and his real life best-friend, Jason Mewes (Jay), held cameo roles in an extensive list of films, as well as being the stars of two of their own feature films.
