'Party Down' Movie On Its Way, Rob Thomas Says

Party Down

First Posted: 06/28/11 03:53 PM ET Updated: 08/28/11 06:12 AM ET

Back in April, Lizzy Caplan confirmed the nascent beginnings of a potential "Party Down" movie in an interview with The Huffington Post, stirring major excitement amongst fans of the cult favorite, which was axed in 2010 after two seasons on Starz.

Now, creator Rob Thomas has news from the great catering truck in the sky: it looks like a "Party Down" film just may happen.

At an event at the Alamo Draft House over the weekend, Thomas that while a third season won't be happening, a big screen adventure will be served.

"People are talking to us about doing a 'Party Down' movie," Thomas said (via /Film). "We are pretty far down the deal-making process with that, so we're hopeful that there will be a 'Party Down' movie. Ideally, if it works out we could be shooting in television hiatus time next spring. Hopefully that deal will close, and we'll all tweet about it when it does."

The show ended with a solid conclusion, perhaps with the creators aware that the second season would probably be its end. But there are plenty of other parties to cater -- the subject of another question the cast, including Adam Scott, answered at the event. Check out that video underneath Thomas' short film explanation (quick spoiler: would they serve space ice cream?).

Are you having fun yet?

Yesssssssss! I'm definitely having fun yet! An amazing show with a wonderful cast which I found through the wonders of Netflix. Adam Scott is brilliant, as is Jane Lynch and everyone else.
So, so excited for this!

Hands down this was the funniest sitcom on TV. Glad to hear about a movie but wish they were coming back to Starz for a few more seasons.

love this show sooo much, such a unique comedy. It seems like every role Adam Scott takes is amazing, his part as Will Ferrells brother Derek in Step Brothers may be for me the funniest character ever. Are Bonita fish big?

Glad to hear about this one too, but is "beloved" becoming the new HP cliche?
