We return to Quick Stop Groceries with Dante Hicks and Randal Graves in Kevin Smith‘s new “Clerks III” trailer.
It’s been 28 years since we were first introduced to the Quick Stop Groceries crew in “Clerks” and 16 years has gone by since the sequel, “Clerks 2.” Now, Smith is back at it again wrapping up the trilogy.
After surviving a heart attack, Randal decides to make a movie with his friend Dante about their lives at the Quick Stop convenience store. A mashup of the real life story of writer and director of the film Kevin Smith. The plot was initially conceived as a film adaptation of Clerks: The Animated Series titled Clerks: Sell Out.
Brian O’Halloran returns as Randal, Jeff Anderson as Dante, Marilyn Ghigliotti as Veronica Loughran, Jason Mewes as Jay, and Smith as Silent Bob from Clerks; while Rosario Dawson as Becky Scott, and Trevor Fehrman as Elias Grover from Clerks 2.
Of course filming took place in Red Bank, New Jersey, the hometown of Smith and the location of the infamous Quick Stop.
Smith has been working on the third film in the saga for quite a long time now and it only took 10 years to get it made. The film is based in the View Askewniverse in which all of Smith’s films take place.
Clerks III releases in September 2022 and is set to run 94 minutes.
