Kevin Smith Reveals Opening Scene Of New Movie Set In The Eighties

For the first time since 2016’s Yoga Hosers, Kevin Smith recently revealed that he is writing a new film that, from all apperances, will not take place in the “View Askewniverse” of movies like Clerks, Mallrats, and Dogma. At the time, Smith gave scant few details, but shortly after, he told the audience on an episode of Fatman Beyond that the movie is a period piece, set in the 1980s. And now, ahead of his panel at Comic Con International in San Diego this weekend, Smith has shared a peek at the first page of the script for the movie (but not the title). He also suggested he doesn’t know yet whether this is a movie he will actually get to make, but he’s hopeful.

I finished a new script today.One day I might get to direct it.And some total strangers will love it.While some total strangers will hate it.But that’s if I get lucky.Today I’ve got a blueprint for what my possible future might look like.And so the journey begins again… pic.twitter.com/3NnjaO6Srv
