Inbetweeners Star James Buckley Eyes Return to Comedy Glory
You might think this is new, but… The Inbetweeners, that beloved series where Jay Cartwright was just a loud-mouthed lad obsessed with girls and drinking, could be making a comeback. According to James Buckley, the man behind Jay, Britain might need a dose of the old “antidote to woke” culture.
The Buckleys: A Modern Humor Show
James still loves to make people laugh, but now he’s doing it with his model wife Clair on their hit podcast The Buckleys. They’re not afraid to go near-the-knuckle, as evidenced by Clair jokingly saying she’ll punch James in the jaw or him asking her to put her “tits away” for a minute.
James Buckley’s Career Moves
Buckley has been busy since The Inbetweeners. He starred in various TV shows like White Gold and horror movies, earning around £2 million from Cameo services. Next week, he can be seen in Mother’s Pride, a comedy about saving a pub.
The Future of The Inbetweeners
While James insists he hasn’t been asked to return as Jay, he thinks the show could bring some much-needed relief amid today’s overly sensitive culture. “I think we are coming back to having a laugh again,” Buckley told The Sun.
With the first Inbetweeners movie breaking records in 2011 and the second taking them to Australia, James hopes that the reboot can go out with a “blaze of glory.” He’s not just talking about keeping the silly humour but making sure it resonates with audiences who might need a good laugh.
James Buckley is all about staying true to himself. In an era where self-deprecating humour is rare, he remains unapologetic and continues to make people laugh through his podcast, books, and upcoming film. He’s planning big things for Brand Buckley but knows his wife Clair won’t be as interested in fame.
With the rise of streaming and YouTube overtaking traditional TV, James sees films like Mother’s Pride offering a moment of release from the constant churn of bad news. “I just want to make people laugh,” he said, emphasizing that this film is feel-good fun.
So, keep an eye out for The Inbetweeners reboot. It might just be the antidote you need in these times of political correctness and woke culture.
