Kevin Smith, the writer-director of "Dogma," "Chasing Amy" and "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" told the Associated Press on Friday that he has begun work on a sequel to "Clerks," his homemade indie classic from 1994.

The sequel picks up 10 years later.

The sequel -- titled "The Passion of the Clerks" -- is set to begin shooting in January. Miramax Films, which turned the original into a cult-hit after buying it at the Sundance Film Festival, plans to distribute the follow-up.

--SWEET! I can't wait for this to be released!

1 Lawren, that's awesome news. I'm a huge fan of Clerks. One of the best scripts ever.
