The Boys Are Back: Norman Reedus, Sean Patrick Flanery, and Troy Duffy Return for The Boondock Saints III

on


In a bit of late Monday news, The Boondock Saints are making a comeback. That's right. Deadline broke news today that director Troy Duffy is aligning with his cast members Sean Patrick Flanery and Norman Reedus for a third entry in the lower budget vigilante saga. Todd Myers' Dragonfly Films is officially financing the movie with The Exchange brokering a worldwide sales at the Virtual American Film Market. This is big news for fans of the previous two installments. It's also a bit shocking that Troy Duffy will be making his return to film making. His history in the industry is rather shady after all. 

"The fans have loved these characters for 20 years. They use terms of endearment like 'the brothers' or 'the boys'. We left them in jail at the end of Boondock 2 and fans want to know what happened to them. Norman and Sean have been a driving force to keep this franchise on track and break some new ground story-wise", said Duffy.

With Reedus' schedule clearing up with The Walking Dead coming to a conclusion, it seems it's a great time to get this going. From the news that was released earlier today, they're hoping to turn this into a John Wick style franchise that may spawn several more sequels. Whether that happens remains to be seen. But we'll hold out hope. No word has been announced on a release date as of yet. We'll update as we hear more.
