==Sequel== {{main|Punk's Dead}} In April 2013, director [[James Merendino]] announced that a sequel to ''SLC Punk!'' titled ''[[Punk's Dead]]'' would begin filming later in the year and would be released in 2014 with most of the original cast reprising their roles. The film was successfully funded by an Indiegogo campaign launched on October 27, 2013, and completed on January 15, 2014. Merendino said of the sequel, “I made ''SLC Punk!'' when I was a kid, and accordingly, the story is naive, and, as just a coming of age story, not finished. The characters are facing big questions, 18 years later, as outsiders, punk rockers… What relevance do they have in a world where all statements have already been made? In the years since I made ''SLC Punk!'', it has found a rather large and supportive following who have been very kind to me. So in making a sequel, I feel I owe it to those people to really do it right."<ref>{{cite news|last1=Giroux|first1=Jesse|title=Exclusive interview with director James Merendino!
