Legacy continues with American Pie reunion

It’s been more than 10 years since the East Great Falls class of 1999 walked the halls together and nearly a decade since the last movie, American Wedding, hit theaters. Now the original cast of American Pie is coming together for a good ol’ fashioned high school reunion.

Set to be released in April 2012, American Reunion reunites the gang we grew to love, apple pie and all. Despite being under a different director and screenwriter from the original, audiences will still be able to recognize the on-screen faces.

Jason Biggs returns as awkward Jim Levenstein, who is married to Michelle, played by Allyson Hannigan. Chris Klein and Mena Suvari will reprise their roles as Oz and Heather, respectively. Thomas Ian Nicholas will revisit the role of Kevin, and Tara Reid that of Vicky.

Last but not least, we can’t forget Seann William Scott as the ever-so-obnoxious Stifler and Eddie Kaye Thomas as his rival, Finch.

Though the boys of the group will obviously no longer be seeking to lose their precious virginity, the synopsis on the movie’s website promises to revive memorable traits that define some of the characters. For instance, MILF-seeking Finch will still be after Stifler’s mother, reprised by Jennifer Coolidge.

In recent years, some of the cast members have moved on to other projects (you can catch Hannigan on How I Met Your Mother), so it’s understandable if you worry the humor has vanished with the hormone-raging teenage years. But Scott quells our anxieties in a recent interview with People magazine, stating, “In many respects we’ve grown up a lot. But on the other hand, we haven’t grown up at all.”

So whip out your American Pie quotes and “get ready for one last slice.” A teaser trailer of American Reunion can be found at americanreunionmovie.com.
