Summary
Alan Ritchson is developing a continuation to his showBlue Mountain State . The raunchy sport funniness show wall the lives of three college freshmen football players as they navigate a college life filled with football game , girls , classes , and shenanigans . Also starring Darin Brooks , Sam Jones III andThe Meg ’s Page Kennedy , the show in the beginning ran for three season from 2010–11 .
According toDeadline , asequel is now being develop forBlue Mountain State . Ritchson will reprise his role in the show , which has not fully landed yet as talks are on-going . Original serial leads Brooks and Chris Romano , who co - create the original fad classic , are also expected to reappear in the sequel show , though the extent of their involvement currently stay unknown .
Why Now is the Right Time for a Blue Mountain State Sequel
In some ways , developing a sequel toBlue Mountain Statein 2024 is curious timing . When the serial publication began , Ritchson , Brooks , and Romano were 28 , 26 , and 32 years old , respectively . Even then , they were slightly too old to play college students , but the show hinged on their college daytime . All in their belated 30s and XL now , aBlue Mountain Statefollow - up would have to take on a vastly dissimilar mise en scene .
That said , now might be the perfect time for aBlue Mountain Statesequel because of one major factor , that being Ritchson . While Brooks and Romano remain best known for the football show for the most part , Ritchson ’s fame has only grown since starring inBlue Mountain State . Most notably , Ritchson play the lead role in the Prime Video showReacher , which has been fantastically successful for Amazon . Ritchson has also made a foray into a number of film character , includingthis year’sOrdinary Angelsand the upcomingThe Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare .
Prime Video ’s Reacher returned for a third time of year , and the explosive legal action series delivered another exciting adventure from Lee Child ’s Holy Scripture .
So , even with the worker being sure-enough , Ritchson ’s growing celebrity could run theBlue Mountain Statesequel to succeeder . Blue Mountain Statedid get a follow - up film in 2016 , calledBlue Mountain State : The Rise of Thadland . That movie saw Ritchson ’s titular character and his crew move beyond college , so the show does have a blueprint at what post - collegiate life history could take care like for the chief characters . Hopefully , Ritchson and the squad can pull it off again for theBlue Mountain Statesequel show .
