Encino Man turned 29 years old this past weekend, and Pauly Shore says he’s up for a sequel on Disney+. Shore posted to Instagram with an old photo of himself and Brendan Fraser from the set of the 1992 film, writing:

“FULL FRONTAL FRIDAY!!!

29 years ago this weekend, Encino Man hit the big screen.

Heres a personal pic with myself and Brendan Fraser on the set. Peace Brendan, miss you. Hope you’re doing great in this crazy world. And you guys know what Brendans peace sign means right? Encino Man 2 doooooooddzzzz.

Hit up Disney+ and tell them myself, Brendan, and Sean are ready for the sequel.

Shore, Fraser, and Astin starred in the film, which centered around two high school outcasts from Encino, California who discover a caveman frozen in a block of ice. After thawing him out, the teenagers introduce the caveman to modern life while he in turn teaches the teens about actually enjoying life. The film was not well-received by critics but became a hit at the box office with $40.7 million worldwide against a $7 million budget. It launched Shore and Fraser into stardom and has become a cult classic.
