Dukes Of Hazzard Gets A Prequel!![]()
Remember all those rumors about another Dukes of Hazzard movie? Well it’s happening, but it won’t be a sequel. Instead, it’ll be a low budget prequel with a replacement cast of teenagers.
Long time CB scooper Liam Wrberly sent us the heads up, after uncovering a recently released casting notice looking for Dukes replacement players. The prequel will introduce Bo and Luke Duke as teenagers during their first wild weeks in Hazzard County battling Boss Hogg and delivering Moonshine for Uncle Jesse. In the prequel, the plot will revolve around Boss Hogg trying to establish a moonshine monopoly of his own, presumably at the expense of Uncle Jesse’s slightly illegal still business. As usual, Boss Hogg’s first move is to foreclose on the Duke farm, and while the boys try to save it we learn the origins of the General Lee and Daisy Duke’s daisy dukes. And you thought the original movie was bad. The good news here is that the casting notice for the film clearly marks it as “straight to DVD”, so don’t expect to see this anywhere in theaters. Instead, look for it in the checkout lane at Wal-Mart, probably next to one of those horrible National Lampoon movies or one of the many upcoming American Pie direct to DVD spinoffs. This probably also means that any thought of a legitimate Dukes of Hazzard sequel is dead. If you were looking forward to a new batch of on-set Jessica Simpson bikini pics, you’ll have to hope those rumors of her starring in a Baywatch movie come true. |
