In 2019, everything was back on track as Smith announced a new script influenced by his heart attack, with Anderson agreeing to appear.
But Kevin Smith’s rewrite of Clerks 3 has been just the latest development in a six-year journey.
The original script was completed in 2013, but he faced some hiccups along the way, including financing issues and Jeff Anderson not wanting to participate.
Smith originally announced the sequel in 2012 as his final film before renigging on the statement.
