Most excellent dudes, Alex Winters and Keanu Reeves have confirmed a third Bill & Ted movie is on the way.
The pair released a video on Twitter at Los Angeles’ Hollywood Bowl where they revealed they will reprise their titular roles as Bill S. Preston, Esq. and Ted (Theodore) Logan in Bill & Ted Face the Music, which will film this summer in New Orleans.
The film is scheduled for release in summer 2020, 28 years after the second instalment of the saga, Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey.

The pair then thanked fans for repeatedly demanding a third film.
‘We owe you a huge debt of gratitude, and we wanted to say thank you. And be excellent,’ said Alex with Keanu repeating: ‘Be excellent.’
An official logline for the movie teased the appearance of a ‘few music legends’ as the two friends set out to save ‘life as we know it’.
‘Yet to fulfil their rock and roll destiny, the now middle-aged best friends set out on a new adventure, when a visitor from the future warns them that only their song can save life as we know it and bring harmony to the universe,’ it read.
‘Along the way, they will be helped by their families, old friends and a few music legends.’

The first movie, Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure was released in 1989 and followed the teenage pals’ time-travelling adventures while they tried to pass a high school history class.
The follow-up was released two years later and saw the pair battle their evil robotic duplicates.
