Johnny Knoxville opens up to CBS's Ken Lombardi at the movie premiere in New York City on Friday.
The new "Jackass" sequel dominated the box office racking up close to $22 million on its opening night Friday. The boys are back, crazier than ever, and the best (or worst depending on your view of the "Jackass" show) part is, it's all in 3-D.
"Everything's wilder and more intense," Knoxville said. "Just the spirit of the guys was so much better. And the 3-D just puts you in the center of everything. Whatever stunt we're doing, you're in there. It's our best one."
Director Jeff Tremaine says that 3-D was made for Jackass, according to CBS. Tremaine has been part of the behind the scenes "Jackass" team since its creation nearly ten years ago. He says he enjoyed doing the film with Knoxville and the gang.
The filmmaker admits, "[Knoxville] and I just sit in the office and draw little sketches and pass them back and forth like little school girls handing each other notes and like, 'Oh, that's a good one. Let's do it.'"
Knoxville has made promises that there will be more "Jackass" for us in the future. "We shot two films worth of footage," Knoxville said. "So there were so many great things that we had to cut out. With all the extra footage, it's going to come out in January with '3.5.' So once we start shooting, nobody wants to stop."
