Napoleon Dynamite star Jon Heder wants make a big budget sequel of the successful low budget comedy - with an all-star cast.

The 2004 film quickly became a cult hit and made a star of Heder and film maker Jared Hess.

The pair have resisted pressure from studios to make a sequel - but Heder would love to see a multi-million dollar update with Matthew McConaughey playing his character and Antonio Banderas as his sidekick Pedro.

Heder says, "Banderas would be playing Pedro. They'd all be grown up, so we'd recast. Matthew McConaughey might be a good Napoleon."

I agree with them - the first movie was low budget and odd, but it was very unique. I think a sequel would totally ruin it all. Sorry all my fellow Napoleon Dynamite lovers - you can tell me to get out of your lives and shut up! :lol:

A bigger budget sequel maybe, if it's with the original cast and not as Heder wants to do.

A sequel would kill the coolness of it. I reeeeeeeeeally hope there isn't one.
...and Brian, thanks for posting Heder stuff. YOU KNOW I ADORE THAT MAN. One day, I'll have to find some random PH article and post it here. :lol:
