Napoleon Dynamite star Jon Heder has a dark sequel idea. 'He's got to win back Deb, and he's got to save Uncle Rico from prison, and Kip is actually roided-out from cage fighting. So Napoleon and Kip are getting there and Kip is tearing people up.'
Original Napoleon Dynamite star Jon Heder has revealed his dark pitch for a sequel to the quirky cult classic, nearly 20 years since it was first released in theaters. The idiosyncratic 2004 comedy features a trio of eccentric high school students: Napoleon Dynamite , an oddball looking to help his friend, Pedro , become class president, and Deb , a budding photographer. The film is light-hearted and absurd, which makes Heder's darker idea for a sequel all the more intriguing.
In my personal opinion, if there was a Napoleon sequel, it would have to be real time. We wouldn't do, 'It's senior year, and it's a bunch of 40-year-olds pretending they're still in high school.' If it was coming from me — I don't know how much they're going to listen to me — but prepare yourselves, it's gonna be dark.
But it's great because it also gives our hero a very low place to start and he's got to win back Deb, maybe, and he's got to save Uncle Rico from prison, and Kip is actually roided-out from cage fighting. So Napoleon and Kip are getting there and Kip is tearing people up. I don't know, there's something there.
