“Judd and I dreamt up this movie four years ago. The world was much different back then - Netflix was waiting by the mailbox for red envelopes to arrive. I’ve changed all that. The future is here. Get used to it. Bow tie is the new black,” Pee-Wee Herman (aka Reubens) said in a statement.
Few details about the film's plot have been revealed, though Netflix said the movie kicks off with “a fateful meeting” between Pee-Wee and a “mysterious stranger,” which inspires Pee-Wee “to take his first-ever holiday in this epic story of friendship and destiny.”
