Now that Bill & Ted 3, which is currently going by the working title Bill & Ted Face the Music, is finally on the way officially with Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter returning to play the title roles and William Sadler even returning to play Death once again, it’s time for some fresh faces to join the party.

It’s being reported that Samara Weaving and Brigette Lundy-Paine have joined the cast of the long-awaited trilogy-maker, and that they’ll be playing Bill and Ted’s daughters.

Now that we know that Bill & Ted 3: Face the Music is coming Summer 2020 with stars Alex Winter and Keanu Reeves reprising their respective title roles, everyone is wondering what other familiar faces will be returning and how the filmmakers will address, if at all, the absence of the late George Carlin.

Today, the official Bill & Ted Twitter account confirmed that William Sadler, the actor who played the Grim Reaper in the second movie, 1991’s Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey, will be reprising his role for the new film.

We knew a most excellent Bill & Ted sequel was on the way and now we know when.

In a special announcement today from the Wyld Stallyns themselves, Alex Winter and Keanu Reeves, it was revealed that the planned third film is coming to theaters in Summer 2020.

We’ve been hearing whispers about a Bill & Ted 3 for many years now (and long before that). But today, it’s been made official.

Nearly three decades after the 1989 original, Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure, and its 1991 sequel, Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey, it’s been confirmed that a third movie titled Bill & Ted Face the Music is finally happening, and that Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter will both be returning to reprise their roles as the title characters.

Every once in a great while we hear about Bill & Ted 3, the long-awaited follow-up to 1989’s Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure and 1991’s Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey, such as back in 2010 and more recently in 2013.

Speaking to Yahoo! Movies about his latest movie, Grand Piano (available now via on demand services), Alex Winter offered up some good quotes on where things stand with Bill & Ted 3 and why it’s taking so long to get the trilogy-maker done. Winter plays Bill S. Preston, Esq. in the movies alongside Keanu Reeves, who plays Ted “Theodore” Logan.
