'Jackass 5' will crash into theaters this year, what we know about the latest installment

You can’t keep the stars of “Jackass” down even after decades of stunts and injuries!

A brand new film in the series will be released on June 26 this year.

Series star Johnny Knoxville teased the return of the franchise in a joint Instagram post with production company Gorilla Flicks and the official "Jackass" page.

“Well a wang dang and hot damn doodle, we are starting the year off with a bang. We wanted to let you know that this summer Jackass is back!! We will see you in theatres June 26th,” he wrote. “More to come but wanted you to hear it from us first!!”

Variety confirmed that the film will consist of all new material and not a re-release of a past project.

The last “Jackass” movie was released four years ago in 2022, featuring some of the original stuntmen weirdos like Knoxville, Steve-O, and Danger Ehren, as well as newcomers, like Zach Holmes, Sean “Poopies” McInerney, Jasper Dolphin, Eric Manaka and Rachel Wolfson.

“Jackass” began as a TV show on MTV in 2000 before growing into a multi-film franchise that also includes spinoff films like “Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa.”

Fans of the original lineup will be excited to hear that Bam Margera has a signed a deal to allow never-before-seen archival footage to be used in “Jackass 5,” per Variety.

The deal marks a truce between Knoxville’s “Jackass” team and Margera, who was removed from “Jackass Forever” after allegedly violating a “wellness agreement” which required regular drug and alcohol testing, the outlet reported. Margera filed a lawsuit that was later dropped, claiming he was coerced into the agreement while he was in rehab in 2019 and unfairly fired from “Jackass” after testing positive for Adderrall, a prescription he said he’s taken for years.

Last year, Margera ruled out a reunion with his former co-stars, telling CinemaBlend, “What they did to me, making me go to treatment and paying for it, and then not putting me in a movie, and, you know, I had to go to court over it. You couldn’t offer me enough money to want to do another ‘Jackass’ with them. The damage has been done.”

Prior to Margera’s comments, Knoxville said he was hopeful Margera could return after he’d gotten “better.”

“I only want him to get better. That’s the first step. He has to take that step and maintain that step,” he told Variety in 2022.
