The wait for Community the Movie is going to be even longer.
The follow-up movie, which for a time seemed almost mythical but was greenlit last fall by Peacock, was to start filming in June. But like so many things, production is on hold due to the Writers Guild strike.
“That was a bummer, because we were getting very close” to filming, series front man Joel McHale told TVLine on Thursday afternoon, while promoting Season 2 of Fox’s Crime Scene Kitchen. “But at the same time, I’m a thousand billion percent behind the writers. The writers need to be paid.”
McHale affirmed that Community the Movie is “still going to happen,” saying that “when this strike is over, we’ll come back and we’ll make it. And I am sure that [series creator] Dan [Harmon] will put in 12 jokes addressing the fact it took [this long to come together]. But we’ll get there. It just make take a little while.”
