Why Will Ferrell Turned Down ‘Elf’ Sequel Despite $29 Million Offer.
Will Ferrell was offered a lot of money to do an “Elf” sequel, but he turned it down for a reason.
The 54-year-old Hollywood actor opened up about the offer he received to star in a second installment of the hit holiday movie in a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter published Thursday.
He claimed he rejected a $29 million payday because he didn’t like the story pitched for the sequel.
In the interview, Ferrell admitted that when he did the 2003 feel-good Christmas comedy, he actually had doubts about its reception from the public.
He was surprised to see that even “frat boys” liked the low-budget PG film.
