According to a recent interview with producer/writer Bob Israel of Aspect Entertainment, a sequel to the Tom Hanks comedy "Bachelor Party" may be in the works. The original comedy, released by 20th Century Fox in the summer of 1984, starred Hanks, Tawny Kitaen and Adrian Zmed. Bob Israel, one of the original film's producers, recently spoke to the Bachelor Party 20th Anniversary Movie Website about his involvement in the film. When asked about a potential sequel, Mr. Israel replied, "Right now we are actually in serious talks about doing a sequel. We'll keep you informed."
Israel also released some interesting trivia about 'Bachelor Party'. In the interview, Israel mentions that the studio had auditioned then-up-and-coming actors Jim Carrey, Tim Robbins, Howie Mandel and Paul Reiser for the role that Tom Hanks would eventually get as Rick Gassko. They also considered 'Seinfeld' actress Julia Louise-Dreyfuss and 'The Terminator' star Linda Hamilton for the role of Debbie Thompson, played in the film by Tawny Kitaen.
