Jason Biggs gives ‘American Pie 5’ update: ‘Nostalgia is big right now’
NY Post
Another “American Pie” film has been baking long enough.
For Jason Biggs, who starred as Jim Levenstein in the 1999 coming-of-age comedy, returning to the franchise would be a dream.
“There’s always talks,” the actor, 47, exclusively told The Post at the premiere of his new film “Operation Gary Taco’s” on Tuesday. “There’s always rumblings. I can tell you that I’d love to get back with everybody and do another one if it’s the right story.”
Biggs added, “I think it would be so much fun. I love playing that character. I love working with those guys and gals. Everybody is just — it’s family, you know? So I’d love to do it. And honestly, I feel like enough people ask and there’s enough fans. Nostalgia is big right now.”
In 2024, co-star Thomas Ian Nicholas revealed that there was a fifth script, but screenwriter Adam Herz said negotiations fell through.
The original movies also starred Eugene Levy, Seann William Scott, Alyson Hannigan, Mena Suvari, Chris Klein, Tara Reid, Eddie Kaye Thomas and Natasha Lyonne.
