Broken Lizard releases 'Super Troopers 3' comedy sequel

The Broken Lizard comedy troupe has launched the third installment of the Super Troopers franchise, "Super Troopers 3," which opened in theaters on August 7 2026. The film follows Farva (Kevin Heffernan) as he becomes engaged to Thorny’s (Jay Chandrasekhar) sister Sarita (Hannah Simone), prompting a series of wedding‑related mishaps. Parallel to the romance, the troopers investigate a new drug ring trafficking a potent narcotic dubbed “Canadian Crystal.”

Directed by troupe member Jay Chandrasekhar, the cast also includes Paul Soter, Steve Lemme, Erik Stolhanske, and Brian Cox. The sequel continues the franchise’s tradition of politically incorrect humor; the team defended the jokes as “good‑natured” and rooted in long‑standing friendship. Critical response is mixed: some reviewers describe the film as consistently amusing, while others label it mediocre or unfunny. The original 2001 film cultivated a cult following, and the 2018 sequel grossed over $32 million. The new release is expected to rely on its fan base and the troupe’s 25‑year legacy to drive box‑office performance.
