Kevin Bacon Still Waiting to Return for a New ‘Tremors’ Movie

John Squires

While the Tremors franchise has never stopped churning out new entries, one actor who’s been missing from all the sequels is original star Kevin Bacon. Oddly enough, Bacon actually did reprise the role of Valentine McKee for the pilot episode of a Tremors television series that never got off the ground, which to date has never actually been released to the public.

With Michael Gross at the helm, the original Tremors franchise just released its seventh installment back in 2020. But will we ever see Kevin Bacon return to the franchise proper?

Taking to Twitter over the weekend, Bacon once again expressed interest in battling Graboids one more time as Valentine McKee, responding to a fan’s tweet to make that clear.

“I’m just waiting for the call…” Bacon tweeted on Friday in response to a fan of the franchise who expressed interest in seeing a new Tremors movie that’s not “direct to DVD.”

The Tremors franchise has indeed been direct-to-video since the first sequel in 1996, which saw the late Fred Ward reprise the role of Valentine McKee’s best buddy, Earl Bassett.

Here’s hoping Kevin Bacon gets that call while he’s still hungry to make his return.
