A third Inbetweeners film has been officially confirmed to be in production by Netflix.
A teaser video was posted to the Netflix UK social media accounts today (Monday, September 7) to announce this.
It said: "Ooh, Netflix friends.
"THE INBETWEENERS 3.
"Now filming."
The brief clip features Simon Bird, Joe Thomas, Blake Harrison, and James Buckley climbing into the famous 1996 Fiat Cinquecento Hawaii edition car from the original series.
After Joe initially fails to start the engine, the car eventually splutters into life, and the number three can then be seen in the rear windshield before they drive off from a storage unit.
The Inbetweeners originally aired on E4 from 2008 to 2010, following the misadventures of Will McKenzie (Bird), Jay Cartwright (Buckley), Neil Sutherland (Harrison), and Simon Cooper (Thomas).
Two films followed in 2011 and 2014, both enjoying box office success.
While the main cast is confirmed to return, other casting details have not yet been revealed.
The movie will be written and directed by original creators Damon Beesley and Iain Morris.
Beesley and Morris said it has been "super fun" hanging out with friends again.
"We're going to work hard every week to ensure there are no problemos making this new film for humans," they added.
