I’m sure most people my age, 25 and up would remember that great cartoon on MTV called Beavis and Butthead.  The creator Mike Judge is coming out telling MTV.com that he just might bring back the two characters, in live action.  However he doesn’t know if he wants to do it and he just might leave it be.  Take a look at what he says.

It was Judge’s infamous “Frog Baseball” short that landed him the deal to create a show for Beavis & Butt-Head, and now he’s warming up to the thought of giving them a similar animated-to-live-action makeover.

“I guess Seann William Scott’s kinda got Butt-Head eyes,” Judge agreed when given one possible casting idea. “A long time ago, Johnny Depp had said to me that he really wanted to play Beavis. … He was doing that ['Don Juan DeMarco'] movie with Marlon Brando, and he said Marlon Brando used to imitate Butt-Head, and he would do Beavis.”

A big fan of both cartoons and classic comedy, Judge agreed that the notion of two headbanging, fast-food-slinging, smartass buddies seems as relevant today as it did in the ’90s. So perhaps fans would embrace new, real-life guys rocking those iconic AC/DC and Metallica T-shirts.

“The Three Stooges survived a lot of different guys with Shemp, Curly,” he reasoned. “I haven’t yet said, ‘OK, I wanna make a live-action “Beavis & Butt-Head” movie, and here’s the idea.’ But for some reason, I used to hate the idea for years, and now I think maybe there’s something there.”

All he has to do now is find two teen actors who can deliver the perfect “heh-heh-heh” laughs. And after the arduous process of casting his first two live-action films, Judge isn’t sure he’s ready to watch all those actors unveiling their best underbites and “uhhhhh …” line deliveries.

“Casting is bad enough as it is. I don’t know if I want to sit through a casting session trying to find the live-action Beavis & Butt-Head,” he laughed.

I would love to see some kind of a return of Beavis and Butthead, but I don’t know if I’d buy a live action movie.  With Judge involve, it might actually turn out cool, but I’m still not buyin it.

I really doubt it’s going to happen anyways, so this story doesn’t even matter anyways, it’s just interesting.
