David Spade rejected 'Tommy Boy' sequel 2 years ago: 'I can't find a scenario with no Chris Farley'
David Spade revealed that he passed up a chance to do a sequel to the hit 1995 movie Tommy Boy, which he did with the late Chris Farley, just two years ago. "I was pitched a Tommy Boy 2, which was our kids are together," Spade said in an interview on Monday's episode of comedian Theo Von's This Past Weekend podcast. "And I'm like, I just can't find a scenario with no Farley." Spade's Saturday Night Live costar died Dec. 18, 1997, of a drug overdose. He was 33 and was credited in only a couple more films. During his interview, Spade said this one was supposed to be "our kids, and it was about them, and then I was going to come help them on the road or something." Even if Tommy Boy's in the title, he determined that such a project would "be too much of a sell out." He added, "Listen, it was about Christopher." But, he said, "it would have been a blast" to do one right after the first movie, which was about traveling salesmen Tommy Callahan III (played by Farley), and Spade's Richard Hayden teaming up to go on the road in an attempt to save Callahan Auto Parts. The underachieving Tommy and his father's uptight assistant encounter a series of hilarious scenarios. In his conversation, Spade noted that, although he and Farley hadn't done a sequel, he and his close friend had worked together again in the movie Black Sheep, which was "the same type of movie." The comedy was released the following summer and directed by Penelope Spheeris, who'd helmed Wayne's World. Spade said they should have just kept Tommy Boy director, Peter Segal, for a sequel then, but he wasn't available. (Segal directed My Fellow Americans, a comedy with Dan Akroyd, Jack Lemmon, and James Garner that was released in 1996.)Spade gave a glimpse of Farley, with whom he shared the SNL stage from 1990 to 1995, in December 2022, as he and fellow alum Dana Carvey marked 25 years since Farley's death on their Fly On the Wall podcast. "Chris, he was always sort of in awe of literally every other cast member. Just going, 'So funny. Phil's [Hartman] so great. Oh my God.' And then everyone's like, 'Wait, you're the great one dude,'" Spade recalled. "Or even [John] Belushi. There's a point when I said, 'Actually, I think you're better than Belushi.' He's like, 'Shut the f--- up.' I'm like, 'I'm telling you, it's been long enough where I'm starting to flip.' We grew up loving Belushi, of course. And I'm like, 'It's getting close, dude.'"

Later on in the show, Cavallari challenged Fallon to a moon boot workout. David Spade and Ivan Cornejo were also on the show. More from Footwear News Olivia Munn Picks Black Pointed-Toe Shoes for New York Press Day Tiffany Haddish Goes Thigh High in Black Dress and Glossy Pumps at Fashion Trust U.S. The fashion designer's show look centered around a pair of sleek black pumps. Simple in nature, the chosen pair featured glossy patent leather uppers accompanied by elongated pointed toes and leather soles that offered a sturdy, non-slip feel. Stiletto heels standing at 3 to 4 inches rounded out the set, giving Cavallari a subtle boost. Black pumps are a must-have for celebrities and civilians alike.

Her jewelry was minimalistic and gold, likely from her own brand Uncommon James. For Cavallari, contemporary styles are a constant in her shoe rotation. The 'Balancing in Heels' author is often seen in Chelsea, lace-up and Western boots by Jimmy Choo, Bottega Veneta and Isabel Marant. Her off-duty rotation also features Veronica Beard mules and Alexander McQueen sneakers.

David Spade Says He Rejected Recent TOMMY BOY 2 Pitch - "I Can't Imagine It Without Chris Farley" "It Would Be a Sell Out" — GeekTyrant
David Spade was a cast member on Saturday Night Live from 1990 to 1996, with an iconic cast that created some of the most memorable characters and skits in the show's run, and went on to have successful film and TV careers. One cast mate Spade was closest to was the late, great Chris Farley. The pair made films like Tommy Boy and Black Sheep together, and appeared in other SNL spinoff films. There's no doubt they would have gone on to make many more classic comedies if Farley hadn't passed away in 1997. The studios wonder if they could create that magic again, in a sequel without Farley, but Spade is not down for a return to those stories without his friend. In a recent appearance on Theo Von's podcast (via Variety), Spade revealed he was pitched an idea to make a sequel to Tommy Boy , his 1995 buddy comedy with Farley. Spade shut the pitch down immediately considering there is no Tommy Boy without Farley. 'I was pitched a Tommy Boy 2 , which was our characters' kids are together,' Spade said. 'I was pitched this two years ago, and I was like I can't find a scenario with no Chris Farley. He was the whole movie. It would be too much of a sell out. I can't imagine it. No one could do that. It was our kids and it was about them and I was going to help them on the road. Listen, it was about Chris. If we did another one back then it would've been a blast.' In Tommy Boy , Farley starred as the immature son of an auto tycoon. When his father died, Farley's character teamed up with Spade's accountant to try and save the family business. Although the film was not a box office hit (it grossed only $32 million worldwide), it became a cult classic thanks to its home video release. Spade and Farley quickly reunited a year later for the movie Black Sheep . Spade told Esquire magazine in 2022 that the two actors were considering a third movie before Farley's death. 'Two years after Tommy Boy came out, they told us it made $100 million on video. We couldn't believe it,' Spade said at the time. 'It really grew over time. We talked about doing another one, but Farley wanted to do more drama, so I said, 'Go do that.' I ran into him two months before [he died] and he was like, 'Everyone always talks about Tommy Boy and Black Sheep . It's not as much fun out there. Let's try to get one going again.' … I think about Farley every day. I have his old coat from Tommy Boy .' 'He liked me being smart and him being dumb,' Spade added of the duo's comedic personas. 'Farley and I were always goofing around. He always wanted me to make fun of him, because he thought it was so hilarious. We played off that. He was big. But the truth is, when you look back, he wasn't that overweight. He was big, but he really ballooned toward the end. He always said he was the fat guy, but he wasn't super fat.' It's so sad to think of what could have been when it comes to the untimely deaths of some of the greats like Farley. He was a comedy legend, and he is sorely missed.
