Since 2010 , there had been attempts to write a script and shop around for a third film in the series , with both Reeves and Winter involved along with Matheson and Solomon writing . The script spent several years in preparation , as according to Solomon , they wanted to continue the series and characters properly and not make the sequel look like a simple cash-grab . Negotiations at the 2019 Cannes Film Festival greenlit the film , which is slated for release on August 10 , 2020 . The film is expected to follow Bill & Ted , now middle-aged adults with their own daughters , coming to realize they have yet to achieve the music that the future Utopian society will follow . Alongside Reeves and Winter returning as the titular duo , William Sadler will reprise his role as the Grim Reaper . Brigette Lundy-Paine and Samara Weaving will appear as Ted 's daughter Billie Logan and Bill 's daughter Thea Preston , respectively . Kid Cudi was also announced as a cast member for the film in a yet-named part
