Didn't they do something with Crocodile Dundee for the Super Bowl last year and it was just a tourism ad for Australia?

Perhaps something along those lines? Maybe a PBA ad? LOL

My guess is a sequel. All the major players are still alive.

A sequel within the universe but without the original characters would be welcome. Going back to seeing what happened to the Dude and Walter would be a disaster.

Ben Gazzara lives and I'm all in on a Jackie Treehorn Netflix series. So in.

All of it would be a disaster.

Super Bowl ad - 2-3-19. If a sequel was happening we'd already know. Just hope it isn't lame - my guess is some environmentally friendly car. Though using a character known for drinking and being high a lot is kind of an odd choice.

We already know CBS turned down the medicinal marijuana commercial so this could be a compromise.

Personally hoping it is an advertisement for carpets. Or more likely some sort of home furnishings operation. Somehow he will say, "now that really holds a room together."

If it's a commercial, it raises some interesting copyright issues, at least for a dork like me. I'm assuming the Cohen brothers are cashing in, because I'm guessing they hold rights to the character. But Jeff Bridges did so much to make the character outside of the Cohens—the jelly sandals were his idea, for instance. Who created and owns The Dude? Finally I have a worthy PhD thesis.

Jeff Dowd wants in on this.

Supposedly John Turturro has already shot a Jesus Quintana movie called "Going Places" that will be released this year. He hounded the Coen brothers for years to make a sequel based on the Jesus but they weren't interested, so he did it himself.

Oh, c’mon, it’s obviously about White Russians because anything with that R word is so in vogue.

Carrie Bradshaw, ‘The Dude’ to star in Super Bowl commercial - The Boston Globe

SB commercial.

Wait a second, their compensation is 1 to 12 months of clean water for someONE in Africa? You gotta be kidding me. I'd expect at least 50 new wells to get me to sell out a character like that.
