You're going to think, 'Of course he's going to say this', but honestly, it's one of the best scripts I have "You're going to think, 'Of course he's going to say this', but honestly, it's one of the best scripts I've read," Carlyle said.
 

The actor said all the four characters are 20 years old now and he has never seen a sequel that takes place 20 years after the original and this makes the film unique.
