Michael “Bully” Herbig is always good for a surprise. He should make many of his fans very happy with his new prank: his successful film “The Shoe of Manitu” is getting a sequel.
After almost a quarter of a century, Michael “Bully” Herbig (55) continues his hit film “The Shoe of Manitu”. “The Canoe of Manitu” is scheduled to be released in cinemas in 2025,” the production company Constantin Film announced late on Thursday evening in Munich. Michael Herbig will be back in the director’s chair. The script comes from Herbig, Christian Tramitz and Rick Kavanian.
Sequel to a real hit film
Based on sketches from the ProSieben comedy show “Bullyparade,” Herbig made the feature film “The Shoe of Manitu” in 2000, a parody of the Winnetou films of the 1960s. The comedy was released in cinemas in the summer of 2001. With almost 12 million visitors at the time, it was one of the most successful German cinema films ever.
Filming for the sequel “The Canoe of Manitu” is scheduled to take place this year. Details about the cast will be available in the coming months. RTL is on board for the first time in a cinema production of Bully, Constantin Film said.
Transparency note: The star is part of RTL Deutschland.
