Steve Carell Anchorman 3

He said that he’s up for it!

Anchorman 2 was a great movie. There. We said it.

The 2013 movie has boasts a measly 6.3 on IMDB, which is just down right insulting.

It’s hilarious, and its only flaw might be that it’s not as good as the first one. But very few comedies could live up to the incredibly high standard that the original set.

So next time you’re watching Anchorman 2 (which is on Netflix, by the way), don’t be so harsh on it…

Now that we’ve gotten that out of the way, is it time to start looking forward to a third Anchorman movie?

One of the franchise’s most hilarious characters says that he’s up for it anyway.

Steve Carell, who plays Brick Tamland, said in a recent interview that he’s ready and willing if ever a third movie is on the cards.

Speaking to Variety, Carell said: “If they make another one, I’ll do another one. Those are really fun. That’s just hanging out with friends and being silly.”

Recently we shared the news that Will Ferrell was starting a podcast as Ron Burgundy, and Carell has said that he (and Brick) would be more than happy to lend their voice to the show.

Even if we don’t get Anchorman 3, we’ll settle for hearing those two characters back together again.
