Comedian Paul Reubens confirmed Wednesday that the long-rumored ? -wee Herman reboot film is indeed happening. Reubens told Jimmy Fallon on “The Tonight Show” that Judd Apatow is attached to produce the movie and that a director had been chosen and would be named soon.
“I was hoping I could make this huge announcement tonight, but it's a week away, I think, from being announced,” Reubens said.
As TheWrap previously reported, Apatow Productions has been attached to the project for over four years. “I Love You, Beth Cooper” star Paul Rust was initially named as a co-writer of the script, along with Reubens.
Reubens said that production would begin in February. Fallon offered a guess of who the unnamed director would be, saying: “Steven Spielberg?”
“‘P.T.,’ it's called,” Reubens joked.
1985's “? -wee's Big Adventure” was directed by Tim Burton and became a cult classic. In 2010, Reubens brought back the character for a live Broadway show that sold out 80 consecutive performances.

Word some of these cats make me feel like a grandpa and I just turned 31 lmao
? -Wee was originally a live show that had a special on HBO back in the 80's. It was presented as a kids show but the tone and humor was very adult and raunchy as hell. It was where people like Phil Hartman got their first big break. Then it got turned into a movie by Tim Burton which proved so popular that they actually developed a legit kids show on CBS starring ? -Wee a couple of years after.
This is why Paul Reubens always talked about making 2 different ? -Wee comeback movies. One appealing more to the adult audience of the original show and Big Adventure and another appealing to kids like the ? -Wee's Playhouse show and Big Top ? -Wee. I guess he's just going to end up making one movie mixing the tone of both styles though.
I'm not a Judd Apatow fan at all so I'll likely pass on this even though it's good to finally see it get greenlit but if Tim Burton was working on this I'd be all over it. -

That is what people do in those places tho. Someone set his ass up because he was PeeWee Herman.

Jim Carrey is a genius.
PeeWee Herman is a creepy bastard. -
Well he did get caught playing with himself in a porno theatre that one time, that kept him from being ? Wee for a while.
