Today, director Kevin Smith confirmed via Twitter, that after his next film Hit Somebody, he will be making Clerks III, and that will be his final film.
Earlier in the week, Smith announced that Hit Somebody will only be one big film, and not stretched into a two part series.
So with the HIT SOMEBODY shift, the minute Jeff Anderson signs on, my last cinematic effort as a writer/director will be CLERKS III. #TaDa
