Three’s coming. I basically sold everything to Thunder Road. These guys are basically the action franchise kings of Hollywood, [with] John Wick and Sicario, which I love. I love Sicario.
They’re looking at production starting in March, August of ’26. So the boys should be in theaters end of [that] year, beginning of the next. ’26, ’27, that is.

The Boondock Saints Review
This movie took a half-baked idea and executed it so poorly that the end result is almost unwatchable. This is a cinematic disaster.
Though Duffy won’t be involved inThe Boondock Saints 3, the original director is continuing the story in a series of books. Starting withBoondock Saints: Blood Origin, the series will explore the characters of Connor and Murphy in a modern-day setting, delving into their experiences as they arrive in Boston and confront America’s societal injustices. The series promises to provide deeper insights into the brothers' motives, their journey into vigilantism, and other unanswered questions from the films.
Our Take On The Boondock Saints 3’s Release Window
It’s Great News For Fans Of The Cult Classic Film
The Boondock Saints 3’s release window is great news for fans of the cult classic film and its sequel. With Sean Patrick Flanery and Norman Reedus not only reprising their roles, but also acting as executive producers, the third film should deliver all the vigilante action that audiences expect. However, without Troy Duffy’s involvement,the franchise has an opportunity to evolve under fresh creative direction, breathing new life into the series and perhaps even shifting its critical reception.
