Boondock Saints 3: A Confirmed spring 2025 Filming Start!

Boondock Saints 3: The Long-Awaited Sequel Is FINALLY Happening!

Get ready, action fans! Boondock Saints 3 is officially happening. We've got confirmation directly from Sean Patrick Flanery himself. Remember those legendary twin brothers, Connor and Murphy MacManus, played by Flanery and Norman Reedus, who decided to clean up Boston’s criminal underworld in those action-packed crime thrillers? This insane action movie was released in 1999. The massive cult following behind this action-comedy, even after so many years? Totally unheard of. And that crazy sequel? Well that just adds to the success, for obvious reasons.

This amazing announcement? The film’s production is totally confirmed to begin in Spring 2025; a huge moment given that it has been a seriously long and complex time in pre-production, mostly filled with many rumors, speculation, and discussions before a confirmed sequel and cast finally came together in 2021, with both Flanery and Reedus returning! This announcement really does help add more intensity towards that finally-coming storyline! That’s awesome news, especially after those many delays!

During a recent Q&A (moderated by Screen Rant's Jeff Heller), Flanery was questioned concerning Boondock Saints 3, after Reedus confirmed earlier the project's actual production would be continuing; the latter's official statement being what helped convince the broader fanbase that this would be a worthwhile pursuit. Even Flanery had this surprise moment and couldn't share full details – because it remains top secret – he gave this great quote, confirming that Reedus personally told him about the start date only the day before, resulting in a seriously great statement delivered with a classic sense of informal energy which adds immensely to its overall excitement!

Here’s the quote: "That motherfer text me last night. He's one of my best friends. Solid dude. I can't say that about a lot of people in Hollywood, but that is a solid motherfer. One of the best dudes in Hollywood, and he's been a dear friend of mine since ’94. We shot that in ’99… We're shooting between March and August."

What This Means for Boondock Saints 3 (and Fans!)

That Spring 2025 start date? Huge for the whole Boondock Saints fanbase. Remember how this initial action-comedy only earned back a sliver of its budget—$6 million—after only that short release in theaters? Yet its Blockbuster deal created legendary status; those fans patiently waited for this new content! They totally made this movie into a classic; a movie with such a unique niche audience which remained fiercely loyal to those iconic vigilantes for more than two decades and finally getting the announced sequel shows that a dedication and creative pursuit is always worth the effort.

Given that production happens in that specified time period–the most important takeaway: We’re expecting the release only around 2026; a far longer wait than initially expected yet entirely understandable, especially given the extremely limited budget.

The Boondock Saints' Stars Shine Even Brighter

Reedus is now a major player thanks to The Walking Dead. And Flanery, while having worked extensively since the 90’s has achieved tremendous success which would make fans remember him fondly; he recently won a Daytime Emmy for The Bay and received great critical reviews for Nefarious. This just adds immense credence toward this sequel; making the success appear entirely possible given the acting skill of the stars involved.

It really does showcase how valuable it is to acknowledge this intense fanbase; this level of respect generated through years of building and developing both an immensely successful show–The Walking Dead—but also including continued work on less popular projects; showcasing continued acting excellence through a combination of larger projects, with others showing incredible talent which is now highly-respected! The sheer willingness to make a sequel after this enormously long time period truly emphasizes that those involved highly value their fans; giving audiences exactly what they’ve waited more than two decades for!

After an incredibly long journey, Boondock Saints 3 is actually happening. That long-awaited start in Spring 2025, really generates that amazing excitement from this devoted fanbase who eagerly await the arrival of their favorite twin vigilantes who completely took over Boston, in style, years ago and the creative production behind those highly-requested, yet never released plots.

This production shows incredible commitment–both the respect given toward this long-held request from fans who fueled this immensely popular action-comedy’s continuing appeal over decades; but this announcement really does emphasize the continuing ambition from everyone involved– from those legendary actors who created the unforgettable series’ origin stories to those other actors in this new production. A big win for everyone involved.
