UPDATED: Dundee: The Son Of A Legend Returns Home gets a new teaser trailer and Chris Hemsworth

UPDATE: Australia’s Brisbane Times reports that the whole thing is an elaborate publicity stunt by Tourism Australia, set to air during next month’s NFL Super Bowl. The film’s listed director Steve Rogers is an award-winning commercial director with Sydney-based agency Revolver, who’s produced ads for Nike, Old Spice and Audi, among others.

However, if it proves popular enough, will they decide to make a real film? Would you want one?

Danny McBride is playing the son of Paul Hogan’s character, Crocodile Dundee, from the 1986 film.

The new film is called Dundee: The Son of a Legend Returns Home and, like many of you, I had no idea this was being made (part of me wonders if it is all part of some elaborate joke or part of another project possibly to promote Australian tourism). The first teaser dropped a few days back and now a new one has been released that shows Chris Hemsworth (Thor) is also involved.

Here is the plot synopsis:

Crocodile Dundee is back. Well, actually he’s missing in the Outback. And the only person who might be able to find him is the loudmouthed American son no one knew he had. Introducing Danny McBride as Brian Dundee. This son of a legend is forced to channel his Aussie roots as he embarks on the ultimate adventure in the land down under.

It’s time to live up to the family name.

Hemsworth is playing Wally Jr., the son of Dundee’s business partner Walter “Wally” Reilly. He was played by John Meillon in the first two films. The Dundee website talks about Wally and says, “this expert outdoorsman prides himself on knowing all the is to know about the land down under. But even he will have his hands full keeping his new American friend out of trouble.”
