In the fanboy sphere of existence, there exists a whole slew of wildly divisive creative figures and subject matter – yet few are quite as bizarre as Clerks filmmaker Kevin Smith – who’s been threatening to retire ever since the DIY, one-theater-at-a-time release of 2010′s horror film (and anti-Westboro Church diatribe) Red State.
Smith keeps changing the story on what exactly his final project is going to be. His long-planned hockey movie Hit Somebody was to be his final cinematic bow – but then it was to become a mini-series. After that, he announced that Clerks 3 - a third entry in the franchise that started his career and influenced a generation of slackers – would be his final film, a fitting end to an uneven career. But at the 2013 New York Comic-Con we learned that Clerks 3 won’t be Smith’s last movie – or even his next movie. Instead, his next project will be something even weirder.
