In a recent interview, Paul Reubens told MTV details about the two new Pee Wee movies that are currently in the works. One is an extension of Pee Wee’s Playhouse in which all the original characters (such as Miss Yvonne and Penny) venture out of the playhouse and into the vast unexplained territory of “puppetland” (he says it will be like the Wizard of Oz). The other movie is the “dark”, R-rated Pee Wee movie, and will be about Pee Wee becoming an Elvis-like singer/actor and turning into an asshole from all the fame. It’s been almost 20 years since my most favorite of characters graced either the big or small screen.
Unfortunately, Tim Burton will probably not direct either one.
