Do you have any big plans to celebrate turning 40 on August 2?

I’ve been very blessed, and I’ve been celebrated by a bunch of people many times over the years. So much so that the idea of throwing myself a birthday party just to be like, “I’m 40, motherf–kers!” just feels, for me, kind of gauche. Instead we are going to tape a TV show. I’ve done three DVDs of An Evening with Kevin Smith and the next one we’re doing for TV.

Do you ever want to do another Clerks film and, if so, will you bring the original cast back again?

Yeah, probably in my mid-40s. I wouldn’t do it without those guys, though, I mean, unless one of them died. But I don’t think I’d bring Jay and Silent Bob back because I just think in their mid-40s, it would be more depressing than funny.

What’s the next movie we are going to see from you?

Red State is what we’re shooting in August. It’s a political horror movie, essentially. We’re still casting right now, but I don’t want to cast anybody that anybody knows because that takes you right out of the flick. The idea is what’s going to sell the movie.

Wouldn’t it e great to see Jay and Bob back in “Clerks 3″, but as investment bankers or something crazy like that? Just a total change in character over 10 years or something. As we learn more about the plans for the show to be broadcast on TV, and “Red State”, we’ll have it for you here. Thanks also to /film for picking up the story and bringing it to our attention.

Who he?

The indie writer/director of Chasing Amy, Clerks, Dogma et al. He’s also well-known for his mammoth (and very entertaining) question and answer evenings, and most recently became notorious for getting thrown off an airplane.

Typical Tweets:

He can usually be found plugging either his latest movies or his podcast, aka the ‘Smodcast’:

Like Lana from RISKY BUSINESS, SModcast comes to your town!

His twitter feed is most (in)famous, however, for some alarmingly graphic posts about sexual escapades with his wife.

On a roll this week: we’ve f-cked twice a day every day since Sunday. With little fanfare I’m trying to make it a solid four weeks straight.

And that’s one of the milder ones.

Likelihood he’ll Tweet you back:

Almost 100%, he tweets approximately a bajillion times a day and will answer any conceivable question you might ask.

On JULY 9th, at GALLERY1988, we invite you to go CRAZY 4 Cult! For the Fourth time! http://g1988.blogspot.com/2010/06/stalking-cult.html

Via @RyanWAndrews “any word from Tempe Improv” Leave open the week of July 26th, sir: Post ComiCon Bus Tour w/ @BryAndWalt & @SMosier!

Be sure to check out the new events page for the next four places to catch Kevin doing his live solo show — Montreal, Red Bank, Sydney, and, just added – Kitchener Ontario!

NBC surprised everyone when it canceled “Earl.” How did you feel about it?

I definitely miss Earl and working on the show. It was a shame the way they canceled it. We didn’t get to finish the series. I was devastated; we were all confused. But I guess life goes on and now here I am working on something entirely different.

Do you guys still get to see each other every once in a while?

Yeah, I see Ethan [Suplee] quite a bit. He was a friend of mind sort of from “Mall Rats” basically. And so we got to work on “Earl”–came full circle, just about 15 years later.

Well its good to have you back.

Oh, thank you, thank you.

And “Memphis” couldn’t be more different really.

No, I mean, as an actor you look forward to that, I guess. It’s like you don’t always expect what’s coming and interesting things really come your way and kind of surprise you.

We’re in the home stretch of the biggest superhero launch of the year as Dynamite continues to proudly present Kevin Smith’s Green Hornet! The dark forces that took the life of the original Green Hornet now set their sights on young Britt Reid Jr as he takes up his father’s war on crime. With the help of the Kato family Britt begins to grow into his role as hero. But a larger, more sinister game is afoot, one that could cost our new Green Hornet not only his life, but the lives of everyone in Century City.From the unproduced screenplay by fan-favorite Kevin Smith, featuring the careful had of Phil Hester and artist Jonathan Lau! And check out that strong of all-star covers!

The Stash will have signed copies for ya, or of course, you can always pick up a reader copy at your local shop/retailer, then do like we do — Get a spare signed copy for safe keeping.

While the book represents Kevin’s vision for the Hornet on the big screen, you can now also see how Columbia Pictures decided to go with their version — The first two official promo images were released yesterday, quickly followed by the film’s official trailer today. We love Rogen, but we’re also stoked to see how Christoph Waltz takes on the role of the baddie.

Oh hai MADISON! I can haz sold out SMod? 7pm show: 204/300 sold. http://tinyurl.com/Madison7pm 10pm: 114/300. http://tinyurl.com/Madison10pm
