Key members of the original cast of "American Pie" will reunite for "American Reunion," which will bring the popular franchise back to movie theaters, rather than direct-to-DVD, TheWrap has learned. Jason Biggs, Seann William Scott and Eugene Levy are already signed, with Universal in negotiations with Thomas Ian Nicholas, Tara Reid, Chris Klein, Mena Suvari and Jennifer Coolidge.
The studio is hoping to bring back most of the original cast, including Alyson Hannigan, who currently plays Lily Aldrin in CBS's "How I Met Your Mother," and Shannen Elizabeth.
The movie has a start date of May 24.
Scott, who played Steve Stifler in the first three installments in the franchise, checked himself into a treatment program "to address health and personal issues," the actor announced Tuesday. An individual close to the production says this is not expected to affect the production.
"Harold & Kumar's" Jon Hurwitz and Hayden Schlossberg are writing and directing. Chris Moore and Craig Perry will produce with Adam Herz and Paul & Chris Weitz executive producing.
Universal's senior executive VP of production, Peter Cramer, and creative executive Kiska Higgs will oversee the project for the studio.
The previous three "American Pie" movies grossed a total of nearly $755 million at the worldwide box office. The first of the series, 1999's "American Pie," grossed $235 million and had an $11 million budget. The second, 2001's "American Pie 2," took in $287 million and had a $30 million budget. The third, 2003's "American Wedding," grossed $231 million and had a $55 million budget.
In 2005, Universal released "American Pie Presents Band Camp" direct to DVD. Levy starred.

I knew it was only a matter of time. I was just thinking about the idea of them making a sequel to this the other day. All of the elements are there; none of the cast currently has a successful acting career, which means they will all likely sign on, and the profitability of these movies (with original cast) is outstanding. Lily Aldrin does co-star in a highly successful television show, but I think it goes without sayuing that she's hardly the focal point.

I would argue that Sean William Scott is light weight successful, as is the chick from How I Met Your Mother.

There would be no arguement. He has had some success, particularly in terms of the quantity of movies, almost none of which were considered box office hits, except for the American pie series. As for the girl on how I met your mother, that is Lily Aldrin, who I spoke about:

Except I used her name on the show rather than her real name. My mistake.

True. That was the one movie that I was thinking was a success. The point is, though, none of them are so successful that they wouldn't immediately jump at the opportunity.
