Last month, the film’s producers invited fans to record a video to a specific Bill & Ted demo track, with a chance of then being included in the film.

“When we announced the movie, we had so many people asking for ways they could be involved, and this notion came up quite early in the process,” screenwriter Ed Solomon explained to Collider.

“The instant it did, we were like, ‘Oh man this is exactly in the spirit of inclusiveness that embodies Bill & Ted,’ and we all jumped on it right away. Now that we’re almost finished with post-production we’re ready to do it.”

Bill & Ted Face the Music will also introduce some new faces – Samara Weaving and Brigette Lundy-Paine have been cast as Thea Preston and Billie Logan respectively: Bill and Ted’s daughters.

Almost 30 years exactly since their last outing together, Bill and Ted will finally be returning to the big screen in Bill & Ted Face The Music on August 21.
