Paul Reubens Pitches “Dark” Pee-Wee Herman Flick

If Paul Reubens has his way, there will be a “dark” Pee-Wee Herman film sooner rather than later.

Reubens’ idea is to tell the story of Pee-Wee after he gets out of jail and becomes an award-winning yodeler that brings him movie stardom.

The movie would then turn into Pee-Wee’s downward spiral into a drug and alcohol addict.

So far there have been no takers on Reubens’ idea, but rumor has it the Safdie Brothers are “considering” taking on the project.
