Lou Diamond Phillips claims Young Guns III is still happening

May 11, 2023 by EJ Moreno

Lou Diamond Phillips says there’s still hope for Young Guns III. Speaking to Entertainment Weekly following his unveiling on The Masked Singer, Phillips claims the film could still happen.

“I would crawl through broken glass to go work with those guys again,” Phillips says, explaining his desire for a third installment. “It’s a sequel that allows for the right amount of time to have gone by, which puts it in a very interesting place in history.”

When addressing the little problem of Billy The Kid and Chavez dying in the last film, the actor jokes, “Did you see the body? You never saw the body!” He continues, “In real life, the real Jose Chavez y Chavez lived to be an older man in his 70s, so at least history is on our side.”

He adds, “Some people go, ‘But the spirit horse came for you.’ And I say yes, but there was nobody on the back of the spirit horse, was there? The advantage of that is myself and a couple of other people died off-screen. The ones who got shot to bits they’re not coming back. But there were a few of us whose death was a little ambiguous, and you can kind of get around it. And so yes, Chavez would be back.”

1988’s Young Guns was a smash hit, eventually grossing $56 million against an $11 million budget. The sequel, Young Guns II, made $59 million and found success on home video rental.

The films starred Emilio Estevez, Kiefer Sutherland, Lou Diamond Phillips, Charlie Sheen, Dermot Mulroney, Casey Siemaszko, Terence Stamp, Terry O’Quinn, Brian Keith, Tom Cruise, Jack Palance, and William Petersen.
