Paramount+ has seemingly scrapped the greenlit “Workaholics” movie just five weeks before filming was set to start.
Series star and executive producer Adam Devine announced the news on his Instagram Monday, stating, “Obviously, this news is the loosest butthole.”
“We were suppose to begin filming in 5 weeks! P + told us don’t fit their new ‘global’ strategy…We are deeply butt hurt about this decision because we were so excited to bring the weird one last time,” Devine continued. “I’m butt hurt that I don’t get to work with my best friends again. I’m butt hurt for the fans, and I’m butt hurt for our loyal crew, and other cast members who are now going to have to scramble to find new jobs.”
He concluded: “We are out to other streamers, and hopefully we will get to make this insanely fun movie somewhere else. Tomorrow tune into our podcast (This Is Important) to hear us talk about it. As always, take it sleazy, and I’m out.”
In December, it was announced that Paramount+ greenlit a “Workaholics” film that was to expand upon the show’s finale and show what it was like to work in the pandemic. Production was set to begin in Spring 2023.
