Unless you have been living under a rock for the past decade, you are probably familiar with the phenomenon that is ‘Jackass’. After two successful big screen outings with ‘Jackass: The Movie’ and ‘Jackass Number Two’, Johnny Knoxville and company are back and bigger than ever… and in 3D! Check out the first official trailer for the film below!
‘Jackass 3D’ stars Johnny Knoxville, Bam Margera, Ryan Dunn, Steve-O, Jason “Wee Man” Acuña, Chris Pontius, Preston Lacy, Dave England and Ehren McGhehey.
‘Jackass 3D’ is slated to hit theaters on October 15th.
He’s bared himself on screens big and small, but now, Bam Margera exposes himself as never before. Famous for his fearless, funny as shit daredevil stunts, he has thrilled and revolted audiences worldwide.
Now, in his first book titled ‘Serious As Dog Dirt’, Bam shares his private writings, never before seen personal photos, drawings, and more in this anarchic auto-collage/travelogue, an honest document of the life he leads and a dynamic testament to his wild imagination.
Known for his creative style since becoming a pro skater at thirteen, Bam pulls readers into his chaotic world – the music, the movies, the pranks, the skating, the glory, the pain, and the blood.
The third installment of JACKASS from Paramount Pictures and MTV Films will hit theaters on October 15, 2010, this time in eye-popping 3D. Johnny Knoxville and the boys will begin shooting in late January with Dickhouse Production’s Jeff Tremaine at the helm and producing alongside Spike Jonze and Knoxville.
The addition of 3D to the new film will raise the mayhem factor to new heights, promises star/producer Johnny Knoxville. “We’re going to take the same 3D technology James Cameron used in AVATAR and stick it up Steve O’s butt. We’re taking stupid to a whole new dimension.”
2002’s “Jackass: The Movie” earned more than more than $64 million and was heralded as “a disgusting, repulsive, grotesque spectacle, but also hilarious and provocative. God help me, thumbs up” by esteemed critic Richard Roeper. Released in 2006, “Jackass: Number Two” earned over $72 million and was heralded by The New York Times as being “debased, infantile and reckless in the extreme, this compendium of body bravado and malfunction makes for some of the most fearless, liberated and cathartic comedy in modern movies.
According to online reports, ‘Jackass’ star and pro-skateboarder Bam Margera was hospitalized in Pennsylvania yesterday for what was first believed to be a suspected drug overdose, according to online reports.
TMZ.com has reported that Margera was rushed to the hospital from his in West Chester, PA at around 1.30pm on Sunday when local paramedics responded to a 911 call for a “possible overdose.”
Since the initial report, April Margera (Bam’s mother) called into Philly radio station WMMR to clarify why a 911 call for a “possible overdose” was made for Bam yesterday.
His mother explained that Bam had been filming for the MTV show “Nitro Circus” and had become “severely dehydrated.”
