It's Time For Another VACATION!!
Merrick here...New Line is meeting with writers to write the script but the take is already developed: the story focuses on Rusty Griswold, the son of Clark Griswold, the protagonists of the initial movies and portrayed by Chevy Chase. The younger Griswold is now a father in his own right and takes his family on a road trip vacation.
The characters would acknowledge that first trip, making the movie more of a sequel than a reboot.[EDIT]
..says THR HERE .
"Rusty" was played by Anthony Michael Hall in the first VACATION film, Jason Lively in EUROPEAN VACATION, Johnny Galecki in CHRISTMAS VACATION, and Ethan Embry in VEGAS VACATION. Perhaps, as an in-joke, The Powers That Be could pull an IMAGINARIUM OF DOCTOR PARNASSUS & have Rusty played by multiple actors in this new film.
