While the time-jump makes an effort to preserve the film’s characters, it does throw a wrench in any potential big screen effort.
While doing press for Spider-Man: Homecoming, Tomei recently commented that she has always wanted to do a My Cousin Vinny sequel.
Joe Pesci actually announced his retirement from acting in 1999, but he’s set to return to the big screen soon as part of the cast of Martin Scorsese’s The Irishman.
If a sequel were to be planned based on these new books, however, Marisa Tomei and Pesci have effectively been aged out of their iconic roles and may not be able to participate in a sequel.
