Slater talks Heathers sequel

With his new TV series “My Own Worst Enemy” premiering to good numbers tonight, star Christian Slater might just see some good film offers come his way again. Hey, one of them might even get a theatrical release!

Slater, whose film credits in recent years have included the likes of straight-to-video numbers like “Love Lies Bleeding” and “He was a Quiet Man”, says one film he’s hoping comes to fruition is the oft-rumoured “Heathers” sequel.

“Yeah, sometimes I see Winona (Ryder) and she’s like, ‘Are you ready to do Heathers 2?’ And I’m like, ‘Sure!’ I would do it in a heartbeat”, Slater tells AOL. “I would totally love to do that character again – J.D… That would be like a dream come true for me. So we’ll see. If they want to put something together, I’d be thrilled.”

In 2006, Winona Ryder told Entertainment Weekly that the film’s original writer Daniel Waters (“Sex and Death 101”) had come up with an sequel plan. “I don’t know how much is official; it’s a way away. But it takes place in Washington and Christian Slater agreed to come back and make an Obi-Wan-type appearance. It’s very funny”, Ryder said.
