Jeff Bridges has shared that he’d be up for making a sequel to The Big Lebowski – which brought him one of the most beloved roles of his career. 

Bridges, who played “The Dude” in the 1998 Cohen Brothers thriller, spoke to the audience after a screening of the original film at the Orpheum Theatre in LA. 

The Daily Mail newspaper reports that Bridges was asked about the prospect of returning to the role that helped make him a star, and replied that he and original co-star Julianne Moore were of the same mind: 

“Of course. Julianne and I would fantasize about that. We did another movie together, Seventh Son, she played a witch in that movie. And we would often say, ‘Gee it’s all set up for a sequel.’”

He added, though, he thought the prospect of the Coens wanting to return to the subject matter was unlikely: 

“I don’t think the brothers are going to do that. I don’t think that’s their style. But I must say, they surprise us all the time… If they called me up and said, ‘Hey let’s do it again,’ I’d say, ‘Absolutely, come on.’”

The beloved thriller follows the life of Jeffrey “The Dude” Lebowski, slacker and enthusiastic bowler, who is assaulted as a result of mistaken identify. Besides Bridges and Moore, the original cast included John Goodman, Steve Buscemi, David Huddleston, John Turturro, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Tara Reid, David Thewlis, Peter Stormare, Jon Polito, and Ben Gazzara.

The original film made a relatively small box office of $46.7million on its release, but has become an enduring fan favorite, with its eccentric characters, unique dialogue and memorable soundtrack. 

The Daily Mail reports that Bridges, who won a Best Actor Oscar for his role in Crazy Heart (2010), previously called The Big Lebowski “one of my favourite movies I’ve ever been involved in.”
