"Jackass" was a wildly successful franchise. It released a trilogy of movies released in 2003, 2006, and 2010. The total budget of the 3 combined was just under $20 million and they grossed $335 million at the worldwide box office. So why not add a fourth?

Paramount Pictures has just announced "Jackass 4" starring Johnny Knoxville. It will be released on March 5, 2021. I'm pretty excited - I loved "Jackass" - the question is: will age come into play? When the movie is released Knoxville will be turning 50 years-old. The body doesn't bounce back as quickly from stupid stunts as quickly at 50 as it does at 32.

No other details on the film were given by the studio, including whether the show’s original cast would be involved.
