Monty Python Crew To Reunite For Movie

Posted by timothy on from the this-time-with-feeling dept.

dutchwhizzman writes "The surviving members of Monty Python have announced they will make a new movie. It will be titled Absolutely Anything. Graham Chapman won't be there to join them anymore, but they think the movie will still be in the spirit of Life of Brian, The Meaning of Life and other movies they made in the past."

    Because he's dead:

    And no - he's not pining for the fjords.

    Sorry to be a buzzkill, but it looks like it'll be just a movie by Terry Jones with the other Pythons being voice actors and nothing more. Heck, Terry Jones himself said that "It's not a Monty Python picture".http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-16744299 None of the other Pythons are involved in the writing process.

    Am guessing you missed their 1998 reunion / interview with Robert Klein, where they ostensibly (A) had Graham Chapman's urn and (B) spilled and then frantically cleaned him up? This is part of it, but I recommend finding the whole interview.
