The movie will be set at a fictional weed fest called Burning Joint. In an interview with CelebStoner, journalism for the canna inclined, Tommy Chong stated, “He’s working a script right now for us, we’ve had some preliminary meetings. It looks really good. It looks really funny. It’s
about us going to a festival called the Burning Joint. All sorts of shenanigans happen. It’s going to be a lot of fun.” and “They came at us with a rough idea and now they’re fleshing it out and making it into a budgetable script,” Chong adds. “We could start shooting this summer.”
The comedy duo proved they are still smokin’ in their recent series of shorts on Funny or Die, like Cheech & Chong Read the Bible and Cheech and Chong’s History of 420. Though both actors have had prolific careers since, there hasn’t been a full length joint effort since Cheech & Chong’s The Corsican Brothers in 1984. With more and more states legalizing Medical Marijuana and Washington and Colorado legalizing cannabis across the board, it seems a prime time for a comeback. So, fans of 420, keep your eyes peeled and your Visine out for all the latest news on your favorite stoners here at Renegade.
