Bruce Cambell Brings Some Ash to Army of Darkness 2

Bruce Campbell has for years hinted at playing Ash again — and apparently age is nothing but a number for him. Monday, Crave’s /Film reported Campbell’s decision to bring his character back to the screen in Army of Darkness 2.

The last one was 22 years ago. I just haven’t been racing to do it. Sam Raimi is just a little bit busy making the biggest movies in Hollywood. I use to be busy. Now I’m not. That’s why I’m here. . . Ash would have to stop occasionally from chasing some deadite to catch his breath. Maybe we could do that, I guess. That would be exciting. Fight in a walker. That would be alright. Hit them with my cane. Fake them out, have a fake heart attack, distract a zombie. I like it. . . Alright sir, the answer is yes.

Playing an old character on the big screen isn’t out of Campbell’s range. He did play old Elvis in a nursing home in Bubba Ho Tep.

Campbell and Raimi first talked about taking on deadites again when they announced their intention in March to make Army of Darkness 2. We’ll see how it goes.
