November 18, 2024: This is an exciting development! Kevin Smith confirming that a sequel to Dogma is in the works is a huge moment, especially for fans who have been following his View Askewniverse for years.
Smith's confidence that Ben Affleck and Matt Damon will reprise their iconic roles as the fallen angels Bartleby and Loki is especially noteworthy. He’s clearly found a way to make it work, and it sounds like they’ll have more than just brief cameos — which is great news for fans of the original film.
Smith has a knack for blending humor, heart, and thought-provoking themes, and Dogma was one of his boldest works, mixing religious satire with his trademark wit. With the film celebrating its 25th anniversary, it feels like the perfect time for a sequel, especially if Affleck and Damon are on board.
It’s also interesting that Smith is already anticipating mixed reactions, acknowledging that some people might feel like the sequel could ruin the original’s legacy. But if anyone knows how to revisit a beloved film with the right balance of respect and irreverence, it’s Kevin Smith. He’s made a career of revisiting his own characters and stories, and many of those, like Jay and Silent Bob Reboot, have been a hit with fans.
The original Dogma had such an incredible ensemble cast—Linda Fiorentino, Alan Rickman, Salma Hayek, and Alanis Morissette, just to name a few—so it’ll be interesting to see who else returns or joins the new film. There's a lot of potential for a sequel to explore fresh angles while honoring the original’s themes.
