It’s official: Kevin Smith is getting the gang back together for Clerks 3.

Two weeks out from the arrival of the Jay and Silent Bob Reboot – another one of Smith’s cult favorites from yesteryear – and the prolific writer – director has taken to Instagram to officially confirm that, yes, Clerks 3 is in the works with the original cast members (namely Jay Mewes and Jeff Anderson) returning to the limelight.

Gone is the previous script from three years ago and in its place is a totally reworked story, one which Smith describes as a fitting conclusion to the saga – think Empire Strikes Back, only with fewer droids. It’s still in the process of being fine-tuned, meaning it’s unclear as yet when clerks 3 will be ready for theaters.
