Steve-O & Chris Pontius Interview: Jackass Forever Home Release
Over the last two decades, the Jackass franchise has grown from an MTV prank show to a series of movies each outdoing the last in their hilarity and hijinks. The newest outing, Jackass Forever, had an impressive theatrical run before landing on Paramount+'s streaming service for leisurely at-home enjoyment. Starting today, however, superfans can obtain the Blu-ray and DVD home release usual — complete with a ton of extras and deleted scenes to boot.
Everyone knows Johnny Knoxville as the fearless leader of the gang, but his tireless crew is always up for a laugh and ready to keep the party going. Screen Rant had the opportunity to speak with two members of that crew, Steve-O and Chris Pontius, about the audience's reception to Jackass Forever, the lessons they wish they had learned back on the first film, and where the franchise is going next.

I think we're all so proud of this movie, and I love it.
