Simon Bird has hinted that an Inbetweeners movie could be on the cards. Speaking at this year’s TV Quick & TV Choice Awards, where the E4 series was crowned best comedy show, the 25-year-old actor remained coy when asked if a film could be spawned from the television series, but confirmed that it is something the entire cast would love to do:
I don’t know – we’re not allowed to say. It’s not up to us. I mean, that’s obviously a yes! I don’t think we can give anything away. But there has been talk about [a film]. I’d like to see Will finally pop his cherry! Just more of the same, I think. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.
Blake Harrison, who plays Neil Sutherland on the E4 series added:
There are loads of rumours going around about different things, but whether anything actually happens is a whole other story. We have loads of fun doing a series, so I think a film would be just as much fun.
The Inbetweeners is one of my favourite UK television series and the show is perfect movie fodder. I say take the four main characters and send them off on a series of wacky adventures, all the while trying to pull girls and have a good time – y’know the typical high school movie cliches – but done correctly it could easily be the British equivalent of Road Trip or Ferris Bueller’s Day Off..!
