Director James Merendino has announced that he is filming a sequel to the cult classic, which will be called 'Punk's Dead' and will feature most of the original cast.

Director James Merendino had this to say about the upcoming sequel:

I made SLC Punk! when I was a kid, and accordingly, the story is naive, and, as just a coming of age story, not finished. The characters are facing big questions, 18 years later, as outsiders, Punk rockers… What relevance do they have in a world where all statements have already been made? In the years since I made SLC Punk!, it has found a rather large and supportive following who have been very kind to me. So in making a sequel, I feel I owe it to those people to really do it right.
