Steinberg on American Pie 7

So there’s a new ”American Pie” movie coming – and from what I hear, it isn’t the theatrically-released ‘reunion’ movie (with the original cast) Universal were considering. The new pic is titled ”American Pie : Book of Love” and as with the previous three movies in the series, will head straight to DVD.

Screenwriter David H. Steinberg (co-writer of “American Pie 2”) tells Sequel-Buzz that he promises a better sequel to the previous installments (“Band Camp”, “Naked Mile”, “Beta House”).

“I think the last three have increasingly gotten away from what made the movies great: lovable, relatable characters and a strong theme about growing up and sex and love”, Steinberg tells the site. ”Plus, the first three movies always had strong female characters with a real point of view, not just window dressing. “Book of Love” is very much like the first movie. It’s actually very dramatic at times.”

Steinberg, also the writer of the upcoming “Porky’s” remake, says he’s also up for directing duties on the movie.
