William Sadler: BILL & TED FACE THE MUSIC Beautifully Pays Tribute to George Carlin

Dean Parisot’s Bill & Ted Face the Music will see the return of not only Alex Winter as William “Bill” S. Preston Esq. and Keanu Reeves as Theodore “Ted” Logan, but William Sadler as Death.

And today, Sadler assured us fans that it pays beautiful tribute to the late, great George Carlin.

He tells NME: “One of the big hurdles was what do you do with the character of Rufus now that George Carlin has gone? But I honestly think that the writers handled that beautifully in the script and I think audiences will be pleasantly surprised.”
