Vince Vaughn has been hard at work in the kitchen lately, or at least, on a kitchen set. That's because his latest starring role was in Netflix's Nonnas, a dramedy based on the true story of restaurateur Joe Scaravella. However, during promotion of the film, at least one in interviewer strayed from Vaughn's present kitchen time to his past on the court, and in doing so, got Vaughn talking about a possible sequel to his 2004 hit comedy Dodgeball.
Let's back up a bit. The interview in question is one Vaughn did with The Hollywood Reporter. Toward the end, Vaughn's interviewer inquired as to whether or not there was talk of a followup to Netflix's Nonnas ("There has been some," says Vaughn), and jumping off of that, asked about the possibility of a Dodgeball 2.
"There’s always talk of these," Vaughn answered, "Dodgeball, actually, there’s an idea that’s pretty good, but nothing for sure."
Whatever ideas are out there regarding a Dodgeball sequel, however, Vaughn makes it clear that no such film has been greenlit, and that even if it were, it wouldn't be next on his very busy schedule.
"I’m going to start the second season of Bad Monkey," the Curb Your Enthusiasm star said, "Which is great, and then I have another thing I’m going to do."
(No, loyal reader, Vaughn did not clarify what this mysterious "another thing" was at any point in the interview.)
All that said, Vaughn did confirm that one of the key components of a possible Dodgeball 2 was already very much in place. That is, his own willingness to return to the property.
"It’s always about if the story’s right," Vaughn concluded, "If the extension is something that makes sense. There are ideas that are good with some of these, but you never know what transpires and if it makes sense for everybody. But I’m definitely open to it. I love a lot of those movies and definitely open if something comes to pass."
Vaughn's Nonnas is streaming on Netflix now.
