Pee-wee (Paul Reubens) made his big-screen debut in 1985 with Tim Burton’s Pee-wee’s Big Adventure. Reubens reprised the role for Pee-wee’s Playhouse, a CBS kids’ show that aired from 1986 to 1990, before mostly giving up the Pee-wee shtick save for appearances as the character here and there.
But now Pee-wee’s making a big return with Pee-wee’s Big Holiday, a film Reubens said is “very similar in style and tone to Pee-wee’s Big Adventure.” “I never really thought of Big Adventure as a family movie, but I didn’t try to make an adult movie or a kid movie,” he told EW in March. “We wanted to make something that appealed to a wide age range, and I think that’s the case with this movie also.”
Big Holiday will premiere on Netflix, but it doesn’t yet have a release date.

This kind of cushions the blow of the whole Twin Peaks debacle. But who the hell is Joe Manganiello?
I was wondering the same thing!
All I know is that picture puts a smile on my face!
His description of Big Adventure reminds me of something a friend said when it came out. Commenting on how lots of people didn't really get it, he called the movie "comedy from another dimension."
I look forward to seeing more from that dimension.
