He confirms, “It’s not gonna be a CMT series,” and then said, “I met with the actual producer and we are talking actively about that world and modernizing it and ‘Where is Mox now?’”
The actor also said, “I really wanna tell you what I have in mind but I don’t think I can. It’s fun though.”
Next, Van Der Beek and the interviewer joked about the infamous “whipped cream bikini scene before talking about how the story for the Varsity Blues update could possibly be a “redemption story.”
The original film came out in 1992 and starred Van Der Beek, along with Jon Voight, Paul Walker, Amy Smart, Ron Lester, Scott Caan, and Ali Larter.
