Efren Ramirez he is best known for playing Pedro Sánchez in the cult classic Napoleon’s dynamitewhich celebrates its twentieth anniversary today. He convinced everyone to vote for him and now he’s ready to return to the franchise and make a sequel! But it’s not in the works yet.
During a recent interview with Comic Book ahead of Ramirez’s upcoming zombie horror comedy Seven cemeteries:
“Everyone wants a sequel. And I can say, legally, that the door is not yet closed. There is more to say about these characters. When you have a really good story, whether you make a prequel or a sequel, you can really explore the depths of these characters, understand where they would be, or where they came from, or what led them to be where they are. ”
The tease comes after Ramirez told the crowd at the FanX Salt Lake Comic & Pop Culture convention: “The world of Napoleon’s dynamite it hasn’t closed yet. We will see”.
In addition to Heder and Ramirez, Napoleon’s dynamite starry Tina Majorino as Napoleon’s friend Deb; Aaron Ruell as big brother Kip Dynamite; AND Jon Gries in the role of Uncle Rico. Set in rural Preston, Idaho, the slice-of-life comedy follows the trio of Napoleon, Pedro and Deb as they launch a campaign to make Pedro class president and realize the student body’s wildest dreams.
Ramirez went on to tell the outlet:
“I travel across the country with Jon Heder and Jon Gries, and it’s amazing to see when we get on stage and see hundreds of people dressed as the characters. To me I say, “Wow, I’m part of this.” This is beautiful. I have fun and play a character that resonates with people all over the world.’”
I think that a Napoleon’s dynamite the sequel would be really well received. There’s still a lot of love for the film and I know I’d be happy to revisit that quirky little world. Would you be down to watch? Napoleon Dynamite 2?
