Is ‘Encino Man 2’ in the Works for Disney+?

While talking to Inverse about Encino Man’s 30 Anniversary actor Pauly Shore shared that Disney+ is in talks to create a sequel to the 1992 classic movie. Shore revealed, “I know Disney+ is talking about possibly doing the sequel. If they want me to do it and the script was right and Brendan and Sean were on board and it made sense, I would do it for the fans! It’s what [screenwriter] George [Zaloom] has been working on. So ask him about it.”

George Zaloom was also on the Zoom call interview and teased fans by adding, “If you ask me ‘Is there going to be another Encino Man?’ — I don’t know! I’m not going to say yes. I’m not going to say no. We may be pleasantly surprised.”

The original film starred Brendan Fraser, Pauly Shore, and Sean Astin. A synopsis for the film reads, “California teen Dave Morgan (Sean Astin) is digging a pit for a pool in his backyard when he happens upon a caveman frozen in a block of ice. Aided by his goofy friend Stoney (Pauly Shore), Dave transports their discovery to his garage, where the Neanderthal thaws and is revived. When Dave and Stoney find the living and thoroughly bewildered caveman, they attempt to pass him off as a foreign exchange student named Link (Brendan Fraser), resulting in many misadventures.“
