Jeff Bridges has teased the return of the character he played in the Coen brothers ’s The Big Lebowski .
The actor played The Dude in the 1998 film, and it’s a role that’s gone down as one of his most memorable.
Bridges released a video via his Twitter account showing the White Russian-loving character dressed in his usual outfit: a dressing gown. “Cant be living in the past, man,” he says, telling viewers to: “Stay tuned.”
Could this be official announcement of a Big Lebowski sequel? Or could it be confirmation that he’ll reprise the role in the forthcoming film based on another of the film’s characters , John Turturro’s Jesus Quintana?

Titled Going Places , it’s a remake of a 1974 French film and is expected to be released sometime in 2019. It follows a trio of misfits whose irreverent, sexually charged dynamic evolves into a surprising love story.
In 2016, Bridges said he’d up for playing the character again , saying it would be “fun playing a little cameo.
However, most are speculating that the Oscar-winning actor will star in his own Super Bowl advert considering the video comes accompanied with a date: 2 February, 2019, the date the NFL final is scheduled to take place.
The Big Lebowski has generated a huge cult since its release in 1998 earning its very own festival, Lebowski Fest, as well as an online religion named Dudeism.
