“Jackass” is coming to a close with the fifth and final film in the franchise, marking the end of an era for the stunt-driven series that defined a generation. As anticipation builds for the upcoming movie, the cast is being honored with a fitting tribute that reflects the humor and chaotic energy of its cast members. Now etched into the night sky, their legacy is set to remain visible for generations to come.
On June 24, days before the release of “Jackass: Best and Last,” the show’s official social media accounts shared a final tribute to the cast who helped bring the franchise to life.
“While this is indeed the last jackass movie, you can always look up to the night sky and see their legacy in the stars. yes, that’s right, they’ve got their very own c-ckstellation,” the message read.
The post was accompanied by photos of Star Name Deeds for cast members, including Johnny Knoxville, Steve-O, Chris Pontius, Jason “Wee Man” Acuña, Preston Lacy, Dave England, Ehren McGhehey, Bam Margera, Ryan Dunn, Jasper Dolphin, Sean “Poopies” McInerney, Zach “Zachass” Holmes, Compston “Dark Shark” Wilson, Rachel Wolfson, and producers Jeff Tremaine and Spike Jonze.
The deeds from Star Name Registry were registered on June 9 and show each star’s position on the night sky.
Fans Can View The Constellation Online
The post also provided a website where fans could view the stars, which form a p-nis-shaped constellation aptly named The Little D-cker.
As information on the site notes, “14 unique gaseous stars” make up The Little D-cker. “When you next look up into the night sky, gaze past Ursa Major, Draco, and Camelopardalis to see the greatest astrological erection our galaxy has ever known,” the blurb read.
Many fans were amused by the send-off, while others commended the “Jackass” family for including Ryan Dunn, who died in a car crash in 2011, and Bam Margera, who had a falling out with Knoxville and Tremaine after being let go from the fourth “Jackass” film.
Steve-O Confirms Upcoming ‘Jackass’ Movie Is The Last
In 2022, before the release of the fourth movie, “Jackass Forever,” Knoxville implied in interviews that it would be the last film. However, he ultimately changed his mind. This time, the fifth movie will definitely be the final one, as confirmed by both Knoxville and Steve-O.
In an interview with Playboy, the stunt performer said, “One hundred percent it’s the end. Really, the end of ‘Jackass’ was when Knoxville got hit by that bull in the last movie. That was the f-cking final hit for Knoxville’s head. Had to be. If Knoxville is no longer willing to get hit in the head, you really can’t do ‘Jackass’,” Steve-O said.
Knoxville has suffered many injuries in the past, including multiple concussions. The worst injury, however, was from “Jackass Forever,” when he was thrown into the air after being rammed by a bull. He later revealed that he had a brain hemorrhage, which led to a cognitive decline and mental health struggles. It took several months for him to recover, and his doctors warned him that he could no longer take any injuries to his head.
Johnny Knoxville Got Emotional While Filming
In a February interview with Rolling Stone, emotions got the best of Knoxville as he talked about the final film, noting that he would no longer get to “play” with bulls, which he revealed was his favorite animal to “f-ck with.” While doing a press interview, Knoxville said the last movie “was a very emotional film to make. It’s the first time I cried in a ‘Jackass’ film.”
As Steve-O shared, “Jackass: Best and Last” consists of never-before-seen footage they filmed over the years that was never allowed to be shown. “I genuinely don’t know why it’s allowed now, but it’s in there. That’s what this movie is: finding a home for such f-cked-up sh-t that never had a home, and one last hurrah of all of us getting together and doing whatever we have in us to do,” he said, adding that he was “beyond moved” while watching footage.
Johnny Knoxville And Jeff Tremaine Launched A ‘Jackass’ Podcast
On June 18, Knoxville and Tremaine launched “Jackass the Podcast.” The show delves into the franchise’s history, including the most memorable pranks, outrageous stunts, and painful injuries, offering fans a behind-the-scenes look at how the cultural phenomenon came together. The hosts will be joined by special guests from the cast and crew.
“Jackass: The Best and Last” features unseen footage from the past two decades, along with new stunts and cast interviews. It will be released in theaters on June 26.
